Book excerpt: This is the latest in a series of annual reports based on the Expenditure and Food Survey, which asks all household members in the survey above the age of seven to keep a diary of all food expenditure. The report shows trends, over four years, in purchases by type of food and also converts these purchases to show energy and nutrient intakes. Total expenditure on food and drink has fallen in real terms by 3.8 per cent since 2004-05 (though there was a rise of 8.2 per cent in actual prices). In 2007 an average of £24.95 per person per week was spent on food and drink for the household and £11.37 per person per week was spent on food and drink not brought into the home. As well as the overall trends the report also contains tables of geographic and demographic analysis, and examines trends relating to government policies.

Download or read book Our Troubles with Food written by Stephen Halliday and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For millennia the normal, natural and pleasurable activity of eating has been surrounded by fear and anxiety. Religious traditions have long decreed what foods are right for their followers to eat, but secularisation and scientific progress have not made the situation easier. Our present obsession with health, obesity, ethics and science has seemingly developed from a society that is over-supplied with the necessities of life. For the first time, social historian Stephen Halliday looks at the history of our fascinating relationship with food, from Galen in the first century AD declaring that fruit was the worst kind of food to eat, to John Kellogg's belief that eating wholegrain cereals would prevent masturbation and bring people closer to God. Through modern fears and food scares such as mad cow disease to our current fascination with superfoods, 'friendly' bacteria and organic farming, Our Troubles with Food is a thorough analysis of our changing attitudes towards food and a reminder that we are not so very different from our forbears after all.

Book excerpt: The meal is the key eating occasion, yet professionals and researchers frequently focus on single food products, rather than the combinations of foods and the context in which they are consumed.

Parts two to four then consider how meals are defined, studied and taught. Major considerations include eating socially and eating alone, the influence of gender, and the different situations of home, restaurant and institutional settings. Part five reviews meals worldwide, with chapters on Brazilian, Indian, Chinese and Thai meals, among others. The final parts discuss meals from further perspectives, including those of the chef, product developer and meal setting designer.With its distinguished editor and international team of contributors, Meals in science and practice is an informative and diverse reference for both professionals and academic researchers interested in food from disciplines such as food product development, food service, nutrition, dietetics, sociology, anthropology, psychology, public health, medicine and marketing. - Summarises key findings in dimensions of the meal - Considers how meals are defined, studied and taught, including eating alone and socially and the influence of gender - Reviews the meaning of meals in different cultures
