What do you think influences the brands and types of foods you buy?

Major food companies launch thousands of new products every year. Are there really that many of us trying new things this often? We started to wonder what makes us choose the foods we do? For some of us, our children's taste is a major influence, for others its an expert's opinion.

Tell us, what do you think influences the brands and types of foods you buy? Why?

My own tastes (50.4%)

Children/family (27.3%)

Your doctor/nutritionist (2.2%)

Product packing nutritional information (15.3%)

TV/other advertising (4.9%)

    I like to think that when I cook it is as healthy as can be for my family! I want my children to understand how important it is to eat good foods and I want them to pass it along to their children!
