Analogues (substitutes) food products {--} cheese, confectionery. Their identification and offer in the distribution network. Awareness of sellers and consumers (including operators of catering facilities).
ABRMANOVÁ, Adéla
The name of my thesis is Analogues (substitutes) food products {--} cheese, confectionery. Their identification and offer in the distribution network. Awareness of sellers and consumers (including operators of catering facilities). I chose this topic as it is interesting for me and I wanted to learn more about it. At the beginning of my work I explain what an analogue or substitute food product is. An analogue food product means a new type of food, which is safe and not hazardous. As my work is particularly concentrated on substitutes of cheese and confectionary products I describe the history, manufacturing and classification of cheese. I explain what the term cheese analogue means, how the composition of cheese and its analogue differ. I also mention here how to recognize an analogue. As my work does not only deal with cheese substitutes I deal with analogues of confectionary products, particularly chocolate. I list types of confectionary products, describe the history of chocolate, its types, and deal with the composition of real chocolate, chocolate with an equivalent and chocolate imitation. In the next chapter named analogues identification and offer in distribution network I mention how each food product has to be identified in line of legislation and what food products must not be introduced to market. I also inform on possible names of analogues so as consumer confusion does not occur. A very important chapter deals with consumer confusion, which relates to identification and offer of food analogues. The most important aim of the work is to provide consumers with information helping them to orient themselves in the sphere of food analogues. A survey of information among both, consumers and sellers, but also operators of catering facilities by means of questionnaire survey and through interviews was another very important target of my work. The aim is also to inform consumers with the results of this research by means of this thesis.
