Abstract: | This paper addresses the question: can firms in the food processing industry influence household diet, for better or for worse, through their advertising companies? This issue is investigated through the estimation of an advertising-augmented Rotterdam model for 11 broad food groupings using time series data spanning the 1969-1996 period in the UK. The econometric estimates reveal no evidence of advertising affecting the demand for food as a whole at the expense of non-food demand. There is almost no evidence of advertising affecting the demand for food as a whole at the expense of non-food demand. |
