The study aims to determine whether viewing health or climate labels (or both) and receiving recommendations for healthier or more climate-friendly swaps (or both) in an online grocery store environment improves the healthfulness and reduces the carbon footprint of consumers' food and beverage purchases compared to shopping as usual without swap recommendations. The online store will record participants' food selections. Participants will also be asked to complete survey measures.
Participants will complete an online between-subjects randomized experiment. The experiment will involve three study visits.
In the first study visit, participants will complete an online grocery store shopping task without intervention. Participants will be given a budget of $50 and asked to shop as they normally would. The store will record participants' food selections. After completing the shopping task, participants will complete an online survey.
Approximately one week later, participants will complete a second study visit with the same instructions. They will be randomized to 1 of 4 conditions (1) health only, 2) climate only, 3) combined health and climate, 4) control. In the health only condition, participants will view labels with nutrition grades and may be directed to swap their selections for healthier items. In the climate only condition, participants will view labels with climate grades and may be directed to swap their selections for more climate-friendly (lower-carbon-footprint) items. In the combined health and climate condition, participants will view labels with health and climate grades and may be directed to swap their selections for healthier or more climate-friendly items. In the control group, participants will not view any labels or swaps. The store will record participants' selections. After completing the shopping task, participants will complete an online survey.
In the third study visit, the participants will maintain their assigned group and will be asked to repeat the same tasks as in the second visit.

| Health swaps | Behavioral | Participants will view "health grade" labels on all products in the online grocery store indicating their healthfulness as estimated by United Kingdom Ofcom Nutrient Profiling Model scores. The health score labels will mimic Nutri-Score labels, a labeling system used in some European countries, showing a color-coded grade of "A" (green) through "F" (red) on each product. Products with "A" and "B" labels will meet the United Kingdom's cutoff for products that can be marketed to children and "C", "D" and "F" labels products are less healthy than this cutoff (based on tertiles of Ofcom scores within each food group). When participants attempt to add a less healthy product to their cart (e.g., "C," "D" or "F" health label), the store will automatically suggest a healthier product from the same category (e.g., with a "A" or "B" health label). |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Healthfulness of Product Selection | The study will asses healthfulness of participants' selections as the average Ofcom Nutrient Profiling Model score of the products the participants select in the shopping task. The score ranges from 0 to 100, where higher scores are healthier. Outcome values were calculated as each participant's mean across visits 2 and 3. If participants had missing data at one of these visits, data from the non-missing visit was used. | 1-week follow-up (visit 2), and 2-week follow-up (visit 3) |
| Carbon Footprint of Participants' Grocery Store Selections | The study will assess the carbon footprint of participants' selections, operationalized as the average carbon footprint (in CO2-equivalents) of the products the participants select in the shopping task. Outcome values were calculated as each participant's mean across visits 2 and 3. If participants had missing data at one of these visits, the non-missing value was used. | 1-week follow-up (visit 2), and 2-week follow-up (visit 3) |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Calorie Density of Participants' Grocery Selections | The study will assess the average calorie density of participants' grocery selections, calculated as the average kcal per 100g of the selected products. Higher values will indicate higher calorie density. Outcome values were calculated as each participant's mean across visits 2 and 3. If participants had missing data at one of these visits, data from the non-missing visit was used. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |

| Climate swaps | Behavioral | Participants will view "climate grade" labels on all products indicating their climate impact. The climate impact is calculated as the greenhouse gas emissions associated with producing the product in carbon dioxide equivalents (CO2-eq) per 100g (i.e., "carbon footprint"). Labels will be applied based on quintiles of carbon footprints in each food group. When participants attempt to add a high-climate-impact product to their cart (e.g., with a "C," "D," or "F" climate label), the store will automatically offer them swaps to more climate-friendly products (e.g., with a "A" or "B" climate label). |
|
| Combined health and climate swaps | Behavioral | Participants will view both the health and climate grade labels on all products in the online grocery store. When participants attempt to select a product with a "C," "D," or "F" label on either dimension to their cart, the store will automatically offer them swaps to products that offer improvement over the original food on at least 1 dimension (health or climate-friendliness) and were at least as good or better on the other dimension, with the additional guardrail that the store never suggests products with a "C," "D" or "F" label on either dimension. |
|
| Control | Behavioral | Participants will not view any extra labels or be offered any swaps in the online grocery store. |

| EG000 | Health Swaps - Visits 2 and 3 | Labels will be "nutrition grades" for products and replacement swap suggestions will be for items with a better nutrition grade. Health swaps: Participants will view "health grade" labels on all products in the online grocery store indicating their healthfulness as estimated by United Kingdom Ofcom Nutrient Profiling Model scores. The health score labels will mimic Nutri-Score labels, a labeling system used in some European countries, showing a color-coded grade of "A" (green) through "F" (red) on each product. Products with "A" and "B" labels will meet the United Kingdom's cutoff for products that can be marketed to children and "C", "D" and "F" labels products are less healthy than this cutoff (based on tertiles of Ofcom scores within each food group). When participants attempt to add a less healthy product to their cart (e.g., "C," "D" or "F" health label), the store will automatically suggest a healthier product from the same category (e.g., with a "A" or "B" health label). | 0 | 300 | 0 | 300 | 0 | 300 |
| EG001 | Climate Swaps - Visits 2 and 3 | Labels will be "climate grades" for products and replacement swap suggestions will be for items with a better climate grade. Climate swaps: Participants will view "climate grade" labels on all products indicating their climate impact. The climate impact is calculated as the greenhouse gas emissions associated with producing the product in carbon dioxide equivalents (CO2-eq) per 100g (i.e., "carbon footprint"). Labels will be applied based on quintiles of carbon footprints in each food group. When participants attempt to add a high-climate-impact product to their cart (e.g., with a "C," "D," or "F" climate label), the store will automatically offer them swaps to more climate-friendly products (e.g., with a "A" or "B" climate label). | 0 | 301 | 0 | 301 | 0 | 301 |
| EG002 | Combined Health and Climate Swaps - Visits 2 and 3 | Labels will be "nutrition grades" and "climate grades" for products and replacement swap suggestions will be for items that are better than originally selected products on at least one dimension (nutrition grade or climate grade) and not worse than originally selected products on either dimension. Combined health and climate swaps: Participants will view both the health and climate grade labels on all products in the online grocery store. When participants attempt to select a product with a "C," "D," or "F" label on either dimension to their cart, the store will automatically offer them swaps to products that offer improvement over the original food on at least 1 dimension (health or climate-friendliness) and were at least as good or better on the other dimension, with the additional guardrail that the store never suggests products with a "C," "D" or "F" label on either dimension. | 0 | 300 | 0 | 300 | 0 | 300 |

| OG001 | Climate Swaps | Labels will be "climate grades" for products and replacement swap suggestions will be for items with a better climate grade. Climate swaps: Participants will view "climate grade" labels on all products indicating their climate impact. The climate impact is calculated as the greenhouse gas emissions associated with producing the product in carbon dioxide equivalents (CO2-eq) per 100g (i.e., "carbon footprint"). Labels will be applied based on quintiles of carbon footprints in each food group. When participants attempt to add a high-climate-impact product to their cart (e.g., with a "C," "D," or "F" climate label), the store will automatically offer them swaps to more climate-friendly products (e.g., with a "A" or "B" climate label). |
