Traditional food sustainability depends partly on younger consumers' willingness to choose traditional products. This cross-sectional study examined the associations of product-specific food literacy and perceived local wisdom with stated consumption preference among Generation Z and Millennials, using bir pletok, a non-alcoholic Betawi spiced beverage, as a case. A nonprobability online survey distributed through WhatsApp groups obtained responses from 100 bir pletok buyers aged 18–35 years. Respondents viewed the new sachet packaging of UMKM Mpok Mumun's bir pletok before completing a 22-item, five-point Likert questionnaire. Data were analysed using partial least squares structural equation modelling in two stages with 5,000 bootstrap samples. In Model 1, food literacy (β = 0.442) and local wisdom (β = 0.363) were positively associated with consumption preference (R² = 0.530). After attitude and social norms were included in Model 2 (R² = 0.648), only social norms showed a statistically significant association (β = 0.419, p = 0.022). No statistically significant differences were detected between Generation Z (n = 68) and Millennials (n = 32), whereas Jakarta residents reported higher consumption preference than non-residents (p = 0.008). Weak discriminant validity, uniform maximum-score responses among 27% of participants, and sensitivity to estimation methods limit the strength of the evidence. These findings describe model-specific associations rather than causal relationships or established mediation mechanisms.
