The document discusses how gender roles are portrayed and appealed to in marketing of food and beverages. It notes that energy drinks like Red Bull are often marketed towards masculinity through sponsorship of extreme sports, while Tab appeals to women by touting its ability to make them "feel fabulous." Fast food ads also often portray masculinity as eating large amounts of food. Children's food marketing aims to attract their interest through cartoons and toy-like packaging. The document questions if people feel masculine or feminine depending on whether their food is pink-colored or a large steak, and discusses the need to balance body-image messaging portrayed by brands.
