Investigate the influence of multinational food corporations on eating patterns in New Zealand
This standard asks you to investigate how big food companies that operate in multiple countries influence what New Zealanders eat. You'll need to look at the practices these companies use (like marketing, product placement, or pricing), explain why people's eating patterns have changed, and show how these company practices are connected to those changes. The deeper your investigation, the more you analyse the effects and think about what this means for New Zealand's health and wellbeing.
You explain what factors influence eating patterns in New Zealand, present several examples of practices multinational food corporations use, and show how these practices link to changes in what people eat.
You analyse specific corporate practices in detail, explaining not just what they do but why these practices change eating patterns, with clear connections to real changes in New Zealand eating habits.
You provide a detailed analysis of corporate practices and their effects on eating patterns, and you go further to discuss the broader consequences—what this means for New Zealand society's health, wellbeing, and future.
