Test 4- Section 3
[01:12.26JACK: I've still got loads to do for our report on nutritional food labels.
[01:16.88ALICE: Me too.
[01:18.50What did you learn from doing the project about your own shopping habits?
[01:23.21JACK: Well, I've always had to check labels for traces of peanuts in everything I eat because of my allergy.
[01:30.87But beyond that I've never really been concerned enough to check how healthy a product is.
[01:36.64ALICE: This project has actually taught me to read the labels much more carefully.
[01:41.88I tended to believe claims on packaging like 'low in fat'.
[01:46.97But I now realise that the 'healthy' yoghurt I've bought for years is full of sugar and that it's actually quite high in calories.
[01:56.55JACK: Ready meals are the worst ... comparing the labels on supermarket pizzas was a real eye-opener.
[02:04.16Did you have any idea how many calories they contain?
[02:07.76I was amazed.
[02:08.88ALICE: Yes, because unless you read the label really carefully, you wouldn't know that the nutritional values given are for half a pizza.
[02:18.79JACK: When most people eat the whole pizza.
[02:20.48Not exactly transparent is it?
[02:23.43ALICE: Not at all.
[02:24.85But I expect it won't stop you from buying pizza?
[02:28.88JACK: Probably not, no!
[02:30.66I thought comparing the different labelling systems used by food manufacturers was interesting.
[02:37.11I think the kind of labelling system used makes a big difference.
[02:41.52ALICE: Which one did you prefer?
[02:43.36JACK: I liked the traditional daily value system best - the one which tells you what proportion of your required daily intake of each ingredient the product contains.
[02:55.75I'm not sure it's the easiest for people to use but at least you get the full story.
[03:01.18I like to know all the ingredients in a product - not just how much fat, salt and sugar they contain.
[03:08.30ALICE: But it's good supermarkets have been making an effort to provide reliable information for customers.
[03:14.78JACK: Yes.
[03:15.83There just needs to be more consistency between labelling systems used by different supermarkets, in terms of portion sizes, etc.
[03:24.15ALICE: Mmm.
[03:25.61The labels on the different brands of chicken flavour crisps were quite revealing too, weren't they?
[03:31.21JACK: Yeah.
[03:32.52I don't understand how they can get away with calling them chicken flavour when they only contain artificial additives.
[03:39.52ALICE: I know.
[03:41.73I'd at least have expected them to contain a small percentage of real chicken.
[03:46.09JACK: Absolutely.
[03:47.93ALICE: I think having nutritional food labeling has been a good idea, don't you?
[03:52.88I think it will change people's behaviour and stop mothers, in particular, buying the wrong things.
[04:00.07JACK: But didn't that study kind of prove the opposite?
[04:03.88People didn't necessarily stop buying unhealthy products.
[04:08.37ALICE: They only said that might be the case.
[04:11.43Those findings weren't that conclusive and it was quite a small-scale study.
[04:17.07I think more research has to be done.
[04:19.55JACK: Yes, I think you're probably right.
[04:58.24JACK: What do you think of the traffic-light system?
[05:01.76ALICE: I think supermarkets like the idea of having a colour-coded system - red, orange or green - for levels of fat, sugar and salt in a product.
[05:11.76JACK: But it's not been adopted universally.
[05:14.75And not on all products.
[05:16.82Why do you suppose that is?
[05:18.78ALICE: Pressure from the food manufacturers.
[05:21.32Hardly surprising that some of them are opposed to flagging up how unhealthy their products are.
[05:27.67JACK: I'd have thought it would have been compulsory.
[05:30.26It seems ridiculous it isn't.
[05:32.02ALICE: I know.
[05:33.29And what I couldn't get over is the fact that it was brought in without enough consultation - a lot of experts had deep reservations about it.
[05:42.60JACK: That is a bit weird.
[05:44.58I suppose there's an argument for doing the research now when consumers are familiar with this system.
[05:50.93ALICE: Yeah, maybe.
[05:52.60JACK: The participants in the survey were quite positive about the traffic-light system.
[05:57.12ALICE: Mmm.
[05:58.45But I don't think they targeted the right people.
[06:01.23They should have focused on people with low literacy levels because these labels are designed to be accessible to them.
[06:08.77JACK: Yeah.
[06:10.13But it's good to get feedback from all socio-economic groups.
[06:13.84And there wasn't much variation in their responses.
[06:16.60ALICE: No.
[06:18.19But if they hadn't interviewed participants face-to-face, they could have used a much bigger sample size.
[06:25.01I wonder why they chose that method?
[06:27.44JACK: Dunno.
[06:28.76How were they selected?
[06:30.36Did they volunteer or were they approached?
[06:33.45ALICE: I think they volunteered.
[06:35.40The thing that wasn't stated was how often they bought packaged food - all we know is how frequently they used the supermarket.

杰克:我们关于营养食品标签的报告还有很多事要做。
爱丽丝:我也是。
你从你购物习惯的课题学到了什么呢?
杰克:恩,因为我的过敏症,所以一直要检查我吃的每个东西的标签查看食品是否含有花生。
但除此之外,我从未真正关心过一个产品有多健康。
爱丽丝:这个课题实际上教会了我更仔细地阅读标签。
我以前倾向于相信包装,比如"脂肪很低"。
但我现在意识到,我多年来买的"健康"酸奶含有大量的糖分,而且实际上卡路里含量很高。
杰克:熟食最糟糕……比较超市比萨饼上的标签真是令人大开眼界。
你知道它们含有多少卡路里吗?
我真的很震惊。
爱丽丝:是的,因为除非你仔细阅读标签,你不会知道给你的营养价值是半个比萨饼。
杰克:大多数人都会吃掉整个披萨。
说得很模糊,不是吗?
爱丽丝:是的。
但我想这并不会阻止你继续购买披萨吧?
杰克:当然不会啦,绝不!
我觉得比较食物生产商使用的不同标签系统非常有趣。
我觉得使用的标签系统的类型有很大不同。
爱丽丝:你喜欢哪一个呢?
杰克:我最喜欢传统的推荐每日摄取量体系。它告诉你产品中每种成分在你每日所需摄入量中所占的比例。
我并不确定这是最方便人们使用的,但是至少你会知道所有的东西。
我想知道一种产品的所有成分——不仅仅是它们含有多少脂肪、盐和糖。
爱丽丝:但是好的超市一直在努力为顾客提供可靠的信息。
杰克:是的。
不同超市使用的标签系统之间需要有更多的一致性,比如在份量等方面。
爱丽丝:嗯。
不同牌子的鸡肉味薯片上的标签也很能说明问题,不是吗?
杰克:是的。
我不明白,当它们只含有人工添加剂时,它们怎么能被称为鸡肉味呢?
爱丽丝:我知道。
至少我以为里面会含有一点点真的鸡肉。
杰克:是的。
爱丽丝:我认为贴营养食品标签是个好主意,你说呢?
我认为它将改变人们的行为,特别是阻止妈妈们买错误的东西。
杰克:但是这个研究不是证明了相反的结果吗?
人们没有必要停止买不健康的食物。
爱丽丝:他们只是说可能会那样。
这些发现并不是结论性的,这是一个小范围的研究。
我想还需要做更多的研究。
杰克:是的,我觉得你可能是对的。
杰克:你觉得交通信号灯系统怎么样?
爱丽丝:我认为超市喜欢用颜色编码系统--红色、橙色或绿色--来表示产品中脂肪、糖和盐的含量。
杰克:但它并没有被普遍采用。
并不是所有的产品都使用了。
你觉得为什么会那样呢?
爱丽丝:来自于食物生产商的压力。
毫不奇怪,他们中的一些人反对让大家关注他们的产品有多不健康。
杰克:我本来以为这是强制性的
不是强制性的看起来很荒谬。
爱丽丝:我知道。
我不能理解的是没有经过足够的商讨,它就被引入使用了。很多专家对此持保留意见。
杰克:那是有点奇怪。
我觉得做这个研究可能有点争议,因为消费者已经熟悉了这个系统。
爱丽丝:恩,可能是吧。
杰克:调查里的参与者对交通信号系统表现得非常积极。
爱丽丝:恩。
但是我觉得他们没有针对正确的人群。
他们应该侧重于文化水平不高的人,因为这些标签是为了方便他们而设计的。
杰克:是的。
但是如果能从所有的社会经济群体收集反馈是很好的。
而且他们的回答差别不大。
爱丽丝:是的。
但是如果他们没有面对面采访参与者,他们本可以使用更大的样本量。
我在想他们为什么选择那种方法?
杰克:不知道。
参与者是怎么选择的?
他们是主动参与还是被动的呢?
爱丽丝:我觉得是他们主动的。
不是很明白的一点就是他们多久买一次包装食物,我们所知道的是他们多久去一次超市。
