Best food products combine taste & convenience.The "best food product" nominations were strongest for convenience forms of traditional foods and flavors. One shopper's entry was: "anything making my life easier and less time consuming." Health formulations including Benecol, Just Whites, and Silk Nog were also strong, especially if combined with moderate calorie items like Weight Watcher Smart Ones. While many consumers are paying more attention than ever to health and many supermarkets are looking to whole health solutions to respond to this interest, more consumers are driven by their love of food (especially good food that doesn't involve work) than by their concern for healthy eating. Love of foods can be exploited or nurtured by food marketers. Food retailers have an opportunity to nurture food loves with demos, classes, tasting, and merchandising that serves their customers and contributes to their own bottom lines as well.
