Virtue-Vice Or Vice-Virtue: Ingredient Presenting Order Affects Consumer’S Perceived Healthiness and Calorie Estimate
Two experiments demonstrate that consumers report a higher (lower) perceived healthiness and lower (higher) calorie estimate when a dish’s ingredients are presented in a virtue-vice (vice-virtue) sequence. Perceived healthiness mediates the relationship between ingredient order and calorie estimate. However, this effect is weaker for individuals with low appearance self-esteem.
