How Kraft kept their healthier product secret to avoid the problem of expectation assimilation

Season 1 Episode 54 Published 1 year, 4 months ago
Description

In this episode, we look at the behavioral science secrets behind the success of Kraft Mac and Cheese. We focus on two broad areas. First, how they managed to launch a new version of the product (with all the artificial colourings removed) without damaging sales. That’s an impressive achievement, as often if you stress that a product has become healthier it damages taste expectations.

Second, how they have designed their packaging to grab attention in-store. In particular, how they harness the finding that shopper’s attention is drawn to face-like shapes.
