Abstract
⺠In the food vending sector, awareness of chemical contamination risks was low. ⺠WTP for organic certification of vegetables in a meal was 1.04 USD per plate (consumers). ⺠Marketing efforts should concentrate on the educated “elite” frequenting restaurants. ⺠The food vending sector is unlikely to turn vegetable production towards more sustainable strategies. ⺠More information on vegetable volumes consumed and on exposure to pesticides is needed.
