Is Obesity Caused by Calorie Underestimation? A Psychophysical Model of Meal Size Estimation (2007, background): “…of increasing portion sizes in restaurant meals (Brownell and Horgen 2003; Nestle 2002; Nielsen and Popkin 2003; Seiders and Petty 2004; Young and Nestle 2002) coupled with “a virtual absence of intuitive understanding that larger portions contribute more calo- ries” (Nestle 2003, p. 40).”
From “old school” to “farm-to-school”: Neoliberalization from the ground up (2006, background): “Most of the farm supports go to major agribusiness players who now constitute the powerful farm lobby that both advocates for continuing these supports and influences the guidelines (Nestle, 2002).”
Big Food, Nutritionism, and Corporate Power (2017, background): “This use and appropriation of scientific knowledge and dietary advice about nutrients and foods is not new, and has been a feature of food company marketing strategies since at least the 1970s (Nestle, 2013).”
Agricultural sustainability: concepts, principles and evidence (2008, background): “As a result of these transitions towards calorie-rich diets, obesity, hypertension and type II diabetes have emerged as serious threats to health in most industrialized countries (Popkin 1998;WHO 1998; Nestle 2003; Lang & Heasman 2004).”
The perils of ignoring history: Big Tobacco played dirty and millions died. How similar is Big Food? (2009, background): “Similar concerns have been raised about the food industry (Brownell and Horgen 2004; Nestle 2001, 2002).”
Food crises, food regimes and food movements: rumblings of reform or tides of transformation? (2011, neutral): “…writing in academic and popular circles (from journals to blogs) that address food justice and community food security (Winne 2008), food democracy (Lang 2005), new agrarianism (Jackson et al. 1984), food safety (Nestle 2002), and good and healthy eating (Petrini 2005, Pollan 2009, Schlosser 2001).”
Embodying Neoliberalism: Economy, Culture, and the Politics of Fat (2006, background): “So, in the case of fast food, we get explanations not only about the politics of nutrition but also about the power of food advertizing (Brownell, 2004; Nestle, 2002; Schlosser, 2001).”
The Unhealthy = Tasty Intuition and Its Effects on Taste Inferences, Enjoyment, and Choice of Food Products (2006, neutral): “Nestle 2003).”
A food politics of the possible? Growing sustainable food systems through networks of knowledge (2016, background): “…that shapes consumer taste and needs; the increasing reliance of consumers on highly processed food sourced from distant locations (Patel 2008; Nestle 2013); and the rising rates of an increasingly “bimodal” food insecurity rooted in both under- and over-consumption in developing and…”
Can information costs affect consumer choice? Nutritional labels in a supermarket experiment (2013, neutral): “Critical news coverage of regulatory challenges (Nestle, 2000), and the “Food News Blues” in general (Kantrowitz and Kalb, 2006) could have also contributed to decreased labeling use over time.”
