Research into the impact of damaged goods on frozen food purchasing habits recently conducted by the Fort Lee, N.J., research firm assessed the level of package damage people will tolerate and still buy the product. The 450 men and women participating, ages 21 to 74, from 12 U.S. major markets were divided into three groups: Stouffer's® Macaroni and Cheese(1) loyalists; those loyal to a competitive brand; and non-brand specific shoppers.
