Market research



The Food Warden sticker, containing our modified Bacillus bacteria, could be perceived as a potential product. Therefore, we decided to conduct a market research survey, where we ask the respondents questions about their general food habits and if they would be interested in Food Warden as a possible product on the market. We also ask if they consider using a GMO-containing sticker next to food as safe. We used the surveygizmo survey engine for this task.

The respondents
