A recent news story reported a study whose results revealed that food at popular chain restaurants and in frozen-food packages at the supermarket contain more calories than advertised. Meals from restaurants including Ruby Tuesday and Wendy's were tested and found to be more than 18 percent higher in calories than listed on their menus. Frozen diet meals made by Lean Cuisine, Weight Watchers, and Healthy Choice, among others, averaged 8 percent higher in calories than listed on the package labels.30 Imagine that you are a marketer for a food manufacturer that competes with these firms.
Create an advertisement for your firm's food. Decide on a strategy and tactics. Would you follow in the footsteps of some of your competition, or use accurate calorie counts? Would you refer to the study that found discrepancies in your competitors' numbers?
