hues of my grocery hauls

I photographed 31 trips to the store, catalogued every package, and binned the dominant colors.

    color psychology of grocery packaging

    1. Red (18 items): snacks, pantry staples, and Asian imports. I read that red stimulates appetite and attracts the eyes. Often used for snacks and spicy foods (indian snacks!)
    2. Brown (10 items): bakery and grains. Follows the color of the product itself to feel earthy and healthy.
    3. White (8 items): dairy and personal care. If milk is white, why not have the packaging follow the color?
    4. Blue, green, teal (8 items): beverages and plant-based products.
    5. Black (3 items): the rarest; mostly premium or imported goods.
