Low calorie labels drive dieting mood and sales
A UPI report details how American consumers equate low calorie with dieting and preference for dietetic foods. Abbott Laboratories finds 67 percent of households used low calorie products in 1964, while Estee Candy Co. dominates with about 90 percent of dietetic sweets market share and rapid growth. Diet Delight division projects canned low calorie fruit sales leaping from 55 million to over 200 million by the 1970s, aided by larger cans and in-aisle placement. A sample low calorie ice cream and a tested waistline waffle recipe illustrate trends toward lighter desserts.
