Veg Out! Use of an Infomercial-Style Format in a Produce Awareness Program
Bahl, Morgan; Francis, Sarah L.; Krisco, Mary
Journal of Extension, v57 n6 Article 6TOT4 Dec 2019
Veg Out! is an infomercial-style produce awareness session. We use image-focused rather than content-focused slides to highlight the health benefits associated with produce consumption. This image-focused approach is helping participants become more familiar with produce serving sizes and increasing the likelihood of their consuming more produce. Our findings suggest that an image-focused education session is an effective strategy for promoting familiarity with the topic being presented and increasing the likelihood of behavior change.
