...McDonald’s and Obesity Memo Chutian Chen MBA 603 03/22/2016 Q1: What McDonald’s need to respond is to change the traditional image. When Ronald McDonald represents the unhealthy lifestyle, people will avoid eating them. I think there is no need to eliminate Ronald McDonald in its ads, because Ronald McDonald is a symbol of McDonald’s. What they need to do is to take steps to change people’s thought of McDonald. If in ads, Ronald McDonald sell healthy salad or fruit to children, people will change their mind when think about McDonald’s. Q2: So, for fast-food companies, they only have one choice between pay 1.5% tax on their ad budgets and add health messages to their commercials. That’s a great way to solve the dilemma between the growing in food market and the rising of obesity. The first advantage of the law is the food company have to pay something to help government solving the obesity problem. Second, the law can force food company focus more on the obesity problem, and give them a chance to change their stereotyped image in public. For McDonald, I highly recommend them adding health messages to their commercials. As we all know that, for the most of giant food companies, ad budget is a large portion in their annual budget. 1.5% tax on their ad budgets can be an unaffordable burden for them. If McDonald choose adding health messages to their commercials, they will gain many benefits. First, McDonald has a very specific segmentation, so the ad with health messages...

...profit. There are other firms that involve in the industry of frozen food, so McCain is not the only producer of chips, rather it competes with other firms to win the largest portion of market. In addition, the entry or exit from this market is not restricted. As a result, we can conclude that McCain is a competitive monopolist as it seeks to take control over this industry. In 2005, a challenging environmental factor was facing McCain. The concerns about obesity were rising dramatically, especially in children, as over 22 million children under the age of 5 and around 155 million school-age children worldwide were severely overweight.¹ McCain's view is that its chips can and do play a role in a healthy balanced diet and it is continually finding ways to ensure that its products are as healthy as possible, for example, McCain dictates product standards to the potato growers that supply them, and it may choose to have more vertical control (i.e., direct ownership) over the processing, packaging, and distribution stages of the supply chain for their french-fries because these practices may entail sophisticated production techniques that are best performed in-house.² In response to the challenge, McCain made a SLEPT analysis to study the social, legal, economic, political and technological factors that affect the company business, and as a result they made the following changes and adaptations: 1. Quantities usage reduction of salt and oil. 2. Usage of sunflower oil instead...

...Psychology of Health in the Workplace Sarah Calame HCA 250 January 22, 2011 Wakita R. Bradford Psychology of Health in the Workplace A good attitude can go quite far in making the workplace a more tolerable place to be. What’s more, having a healthy lifestyle can make it easier to deal with the smaller nuisances that seem to pop up daily. Health psychology is concerned with understanding how biological, psychological, environmental, and cultural factors are involved in physical health and the prevention of illness. Recent advances in psychological, medical, and physiological research have led to a new way of thinking about health and illness. A person’s home life may actually carry over to their performance at work, leading to poor performance and bad reviews. The choices we make and the way we treat our bodies not only affects our personal health but also our mental health. Health concerns can be carried over to the workplace causing unwanted stress in an environment that is already somewhat stressful. With the daily tasks that our jobs require of us added stress can make the job that much more difficult. Lack of sleep making it hard to concentrate on the talks at hand, irritated with other employees, and just plain unable to do what is required of us. An unhealthy diet can make us sick and unable to complete the job needing done and mental stress on top of a possibly already stressful job can cause even more health problems physically. Employees may find themselves...

...Is it possible for the old to resist Pepsi cola? CONTENT Introduction 3 Definition 4 The study 5 Discussions and analysis 6 Suggestions 9 Conclusion 10 Introduction Since Pepsi Company was founded in 1902, managers in this company have always endeavored to improve Pepsi cola to make it adapt to the changing market and then to seize the market further. They occasionally distribute questionnaires and make surveys to know about consumers’ psychology as managers attempt to change the production method and find appropriate advertising ways to satisfy consumers’ needs (Bowles Jr et al, 1984). However, some surveys still indicate that the sale of Coca-Cola is larger than that of Pepsi Cola. The factors resulting in Pepsi Cola only in the second place in the competition are diverse, however, this article only explores whether the old group, which accounts for the majority of population, especially in developed countries, refuses this kind of soft drink or not and whether the factor of health indeed plays a crucial role in the old’ s purchase.

Attitude is the very gist of an individual's way of thinking; it is an individual's ideals, his concepts of right and wrong, and all his/her aspirations. In a nutshell, attitude can be defined as the totality of the individual himself. Man is, I'd say, what his attitude is. His thinking, his views, his likes, and dislikes are all enveloped in the single word i.e. 'attitude'. The next point for us to understand that we discover how these attitudes grow in an individual, are they inborn or are they a later growth in man's life. To this question, the answer is that, yes, some aspects of an individual's attitude are inborn, inherited and taken in due to his/her circumstances. This is because what an individual grows with, has got to have an influence on his life's pattern and his personal thinking, which account for his attitude. However, as he grows, and comes out of his shell out of his very personal circumstances, and develops his own attitudes to several things. Though at this stage of his being a grown up person, some changes may occur according to the needs of the...

...Introduction The consumer need for wellness products and various services have continued to evolve in India as the income levels are growing along with it awareness is rising. The lifestyle of a consumer is an important part and with every passing day each and every consumer is getting known to this. Health/wellness which was recently considered as a niche concept has managed to gather a mainstream audience in today’s time. Consumers today want to have total control about their look, how they feel and this is driving purchase decision across major categories like food, beverages , personal care and services. In response to this marketers have launched major products and even services that contribute round 600 billion INR to the wellness market in India .This industry is continuing to grow and it still remains a fraction which is about 4 % or less of the overall consumer expenditure in India. Indian consumers have shown a wide display of behaviour characteristics right from passive where demand of such wellness products is very less to believers for whom wellness is an integral part. Thus it is very important for the wellness players to identify their target segment or core consumer target, so that they can align their value proposition with specific needs of this segment. The scope in the wellness market in India is immense–even a 1% increase in consumer expenditure can potentially create an additional opportunity of six billion INR for wellness players.

...February 2016 The Unstable Food Pyramid In the seventh grade I took a cooking class where I learned basic recipes and life skills. In this class I had my first introduction to the food pyramid made by the United States Department of Agriculture in 1992 (Godoy). I spent hours memorizing the ins and outs of a pyramid that was supposed to guide my dietary habits and ultimately lead me to a healthy lifestyle. This life tool (known as the food pyramid) showed me how many servings of grains, fruit, vegetables, meat, milk, and sugars I should consume daily. Even now I know that I am supposed to eat oils, sweets, and fats sparingly, and have three to five servings of vegetables each day. A year after engraining these numbers into my brain, I learned that all of my studying was in vain. During my eighth grade year the USDA introduced a new online program called MyPyramid. That program was only used for five years, and in 2010 (before I had even graduated from high school) the USDA slightly modified their food patterns. This is when the new MyPyramid was shaped into the newer and “better” MyPlate. My mind was bewildered as to how there could be so much change in an area that should have remained constant throughout one’s life. I began to wonder to myself “Are the current guides actually helping us, and should we be following them?” In order for the food guides to help us they should be more focused on three things: scientific basis, consistency, and personalization towards the individuals...
