Hi im becki. im in the category 16 and under. I would prefer a main course. Im a lacto-ovo vegetarian. I live in the UK. I have no other dietary requirements. I like British food. My staple food would be pasta. I like my portions to be small. I like my products to come in recyclable packaging and also packaging from recyclable materials. I like my food to be done in the oven. Any time is fine. I hear about food adverts in gossip magazines, on the radio and on the television. I would spend £2.00-£2.99 for one product. Approval from the Vegetarian Society is quite important to me. Hope this helps and good luck on your coursework!
1. Female 2. 17 to 29 age range 3. Main course 4. Vegan 5. USA 6. None 7. Chinese 8. Rice (including rice noodles?) 9. Average 10. All of these 11. I would like a choice 12. Within 10 minutes, but I'm willing to wait for something good 13. All of these, but I would more likely trust the news or TV, gossip mag ads seem a little untrustworthy 14. Preferably no more than 3.00 to £3.99, but I'm willing to spend for something of very high quality 15. Not very important, but maybe the Vegan seal would be an attraction
