Abstract Population exposure to food and nutrients can be estimated from household food purchases, but store surveys of foods and their composition are more available, less costly and might provide similar information. Our aim was to compare estimates of nutrient exposure from a store survey of packaged food with those from household panel food purchases. A cross-sectional store survey of all packaged foods for sale in two major supermarkets was undertaken in Auckland, New Zealand, between…

Do purchases of price promoted and generic branded foods and beverages vary according to food category and income level? Evidence from a consumer research panel
The use of commercial food purchase data for public health nutrition research: A systematic review
TLDR
Food sales and purchase data are a valuable tool for public health nutrition researchers and their use has increased markedly in the last four years, despite the cost of access, the lack of transparency on data-collection methods and restrictions on publication.
The effect of food price changes on consumer purchases: a randomised experiment.
Reducing children's sugar intake through food reformulation: methods for estimating sugar reduction program targets, using New Zealand as a case study.
TLDR
Methods for the development of sugar and pack size reduction targets are presented, providing a robust, step-by-step process for countries to follow, and provide a suggested benchmark for a potential national sugar reduction program in NZ.
Which companies dominate the packaged food supply of New Zealand and how healthy are their products?
TLDR
The New Zealand supermarket packaged food supply is dominated by a small number of companies and is mostly unhealthy, so efforts should be directed to the 22 food companies dominating this market share.
Non-Nutritive Sweeteners in the Packaged Food Supply—An Assessment across 4 Countries
TLDR
Continuing monitoring of NNS in the food supply, extension of work from these data, and inclusion of market shares of products will be important as more countries introduce policies to reduce sugar.
The nutritional content of supermarket beverages: a cross-sectional analysis of New Zealand, Australia, Canada and the UK
TLDR
Current self-regulatory approaches used in these countries may not be effective to reduce the availability, marketing and consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages and subsequent intake of free sugars.
The nutritional content of supermarket beverages: a cross-sectional analysis of New Zealand, Australia, Canada and the UK – CORRIGENDUM
TLDR
Current self-regulatory approaches used in these countries may not be effective to reduce the availability, marketing and consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages and subsequent intake of free sugars.
Seven-year trends in the availability, sugar content and serve size of single-serve non-alcoholic beverages in New Zealand: 2013–2019
TLDR
Most single-serve beverages available for sale in 2019 were sugary drinks with high sugar content and large serve sizes; therefore, changes made across the years were not meaningful for population’s health.
The Sodium Content of Processed Foods in South Africa during the Introduction of Mandatory Sodium Limits
TLDR
Sodium levels in two-thirds of foods covered by the South African sodium legislation were at or below the permitted upper levels at the mandatory implementation date of the legislation and many more were close to the limit.

Food and nutrient availability in New Zealand: an analysis of supermarket sales data
TLDR
Electronic supermarket sales data can be used to evaluate a number of important aspects of food and nutrient availability, and supermarket sales have the advantage of being an objective, convenient, up-to-date and cost-effective measure of household food purchases.
Sodium content of processed foods in the United Kingdom: analysis of 44,000 foods purchased by 21,000 households123
TLDR
The targeting of sodium reduction in a small number of food categories and focusing on products sold in the highest volumes could lead to large decreases in sodium available for consumption and therefore to gains in public health.

Choosing the best method to estimate the energy density of a population using food purchase data.
TLDR
The present study aimed to explore the feasibility of calculating the ED of the Scottish diet using UK food purchase survey data and to identify the most appropriate method for calculating ED for use in the development of a Scottish Dietary Goal that captures any socioeconomic differences.

Energy density of the Scottish diet estimated from food purchase data: relationship with socio-economic position and dietary targets
TLDR
The aims of the present study were to estimate the mean energy density (ED) of the Scottish diet, assess differences in ED over time by socio-economic position, by household (HH) composition and for HH meeting dietary targets for fat and fruit and vegetables, and assess the relationship between ED and the consumption of foods and nutrients, which are indicative of diet quality.
Sodium content in major brands of US packaged foods, 2009.
TLDR
The sodium content in packaged foods sold in major US grocery stores varied widely, and a large proportion of top-selling products exceeded limits, indicating the potential for reduction.
