The answer was true until 1989.
But between January and Novem
ber 1989, per capita consumption
actually declined because of popu
lation increases.
5. Down about 20 pounds per
person per year in the past 10
years, although it has been up in
the past five years.
6. October through December,
even though peak production oc
curs April through June. It’s
another inherent imbalance of the
industry. Dr. Yonkers said.
7. Health aspects. Dr. Yonkers
said, especially for milk’s calcium
and protein content.
8. The same answer health
aspects except this time for
negative reasons such as fat, calor
ies and cholesterol. These two an
swers explain why one advertising
campaign cannot work for all con
sumers, Dr. Yonkers said.
9. Although the actual average
is about 3.25 percent, Dr. Yonkers
said the average response from
those surveyed was 15 percent.
10. Again most consumers
missed the mark. Although the le
gal standard is less than 1 percent,
most people surveyed thought it
was considerably more than 1 per
cent. “Consumers need a lot of
educating about dairy products,”
Dr. Yonkers concluded.
