Highlights• There is research gap regarding how mental growth and brain maturation may impact on vegetable consumption. • We have identified particular brain maturation and mental growth patterns that may affect child vegetable consumption. • Both of these developmental patterns partially match with the Piagetian theory of development. • We have identified a series of potential modulating factors. • The 3–4 and 4−5 age ranges might potential sensitive periods for acquisition of brand knowledge of foods and health-related abstract concepts.
