Summary

The purpose of this study is to develop and evaluate the effectiveness of taste vs. health messaging using nutrition education videos. The nutrition education videos teach Americans the benefits of using herbs and spices to increase diet quality. The investigators aim to test the effectiveness of 10 short videos (5 taste-based messaging and 5 health-based messaging) that translate previous findings of how spices can improve diet quality. These objectives will be pursued via the following hypothesis:

Hypothesis 1: Are taste messaging videos more effective in improving consumer interest, knowledge, and confidence in using herbs and spices compared to health messaging focused videos? Hypothesis 2: Will consumers rate the taste messaging videos higher for liking, engagement, and acceptability of herbs and spices compared to health messaging focused videos?
