Abstract

This article was written with the aim of analyzing how these tools can improve the emotional connection between brands and consumers. A mixed methodology was used, combining quantitative and qualitative approaches through surveys, document review, and direct observation in local restaurants. The results indicate that neuroscientific techniques are perceived as an effective tool for capturing emotions and improving advertising campaigns, highlighting their ability to influence purchasing decisions and strengthen customer relationships. However, familiarity with these techniques remains limited. In conclusion, the integration of neuroscience into marketing allows for a more accurate assessment of campaign effectiveness, helping to create more empathetic and coherent experiences and contributing to the strengthening of gastronomic identity in a competitive market; gastronomic communication seeks not only to attract, but also to keep alive the emotion that motivates choice.
