摘要：
The challenge of applying the impact categories is still posed within food products.Correlation analysis between food product footprints on eight impact categories is conducted.Strong correlations between the carbon footprint and others are found in the product category.The correlations could be stronger or weaker depending on the product subcategories.Carbon footprint could act as proxy for some impact indicators, but not a stand-alone indicator.
