Abstract: In the dairy activity, the production of cheese and ricotta discards approximately 55% of the milk used, wasting 6 million L / Day of whey. Currently, they are used as raw material for new products such as dairy-based drinks, grated cheeses and spreads. These advances led to...

Abstract:
In the dairy activity, the production of cheese and ricotta discards approximately 55% of the milk used, wasting 6 million L / Day of whey. Currently, they are used as raw material for new products such as dairy-based drinks, grated cheeses and spreads.
These advances led to the need to regulate the packaged food´s labeling, incorporating to the ch. V of the Argentine Food Code (CAA) (year 2005), to protect and guide the consumer. The products "dairy drinks" and "fermented dairy drinks" were incorporated in the ch. VIII of the CAA (year 2018).
The aim of this research was to determine the compliance rate of the CAA regulations for the labeling of dairy substitutes (SL) commercialized at hypermarkets in Córdoba City in 2020; and evaluate the influence of dairy food labeling on consumers purchasing choices.
A descriptive, observational and cross-sectional study was carried out on 39 SL labels, compared through a check-list, and by 176 structured surveys. Differences in compliance and influence were evaluated by inferential statistics using the proportions homogeneity test, with a significance level of 0.05. To analyze compliance and non-compliance according to the type of product, the chi-square test was used, for the same level of significance.
It was obtained that 85% of the SL showed some non-compliance, mainly in the exhibition and distribution of the mandatory information (33%) and in the optional labeling (8%), prevailing in the drinkable SL. No significant influences of the label were found in the respondents´ purchase choice (only in 7% was it determined by reading and information on it), it was estimated, by a 95% confidence interval, that the proportion of the sample group who were influenced in its choice, and it is among [0.03; 0.11].
The label is the main mean of communication between the consumer and the manufacturer, and therefore the regulation´s compliance is highly relevant since it provides all the information that the consumer needs to make a decision on their purchase.

Resumen: En la actividad láctea, la elaboración de queso y ricota desecha aproximadamente 55% de la leche utilizada, desaprovechando 6 millones de L/Día de suero. Actualmente, se utilizan como materia prima de nuevos productos como bebidas con base láctea, quesos rallados y untables. Estos avances llevaron a la necesidad de regular la rotulación de alimentos envasados, incorporando el cap. V al Código Alimentario Argentino (CAA) (año 2005), para proteger y orientar al consumidor. Se incorporaron los productos “bebidas lácteas” y “bebidas lácteas fermentadas” en el cap. VIII del CAA (año 2018). Esta investigación tuvo como objetivo determinar el grado de cumplimiento de las disposiciones del CAA para el rotulado de sucedáneos lácteos (SL) comercializados en hipermercados de la ciudad de Córdoba en el año 2020; y evaluar la influencia del rotulado de los alimentos lácteos en la elección de compra por parte de los consumidores. Se realizó un estudio descriptivo, observacional y transversal, sobre 39 rótulos de SL, comparados a través de un check-list, y por 176 encuestas estructuradas. Las diferencias en cumplimiento y la influencia se evaluaron mediante estadística inferencial utilizando prueba de homogeneidad de proporciones, con un nivel de significancia de 0.05. Para analizar el cumplimiento e incumplimiento según tipo de producto, se utilizó el test chi cuadrado, para el mismo nivel de significación. Se obtuvo que el 85% de los SL presentan algún incumplimiento principalmente en la presentación y distribución de la información obligatoria (33%) y en el rotulado facultativo (8%), prevaleciendo en los SL bebibles. No se encontró influencias significativas del rótulo en la elección de compra de los encuestados (solo en el 7% estuvo determinada por la lectura e información del mismo), se estimó por intervalo de confianza del 95% la proporción poblacional de los encuestados que se ven influenciados, siendo el mismo [0,03; 0,11]. El rótulo es el principal medio de comunicación entre el consumidor y el elaborador, y por ello el cumplimiento de las disposiciones para el mismo cobra gran relevancia ya que en él se brinda toda la información que el consumidor necesita para tomar una decisión en su compra. .
