Acquired Tastes makes the case that our food habits say more about where we come from and who we would like to be.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis intimate portrait of eating habits and attitudes towards food in over one hundred Canadian families in both rural and urban settings reveals that our food choices never solely reflect personal tastes. Age, gender, social class, ethnicity, health concerns, food availability, and political and moral concerns shape the meanings that families attach to food and their self-identities. They also influence how its members respond to social discourses on health, beauty, and the environment, a finding that has profound implications for public health campaigns.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 Healthy Eating\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2 Eating Ethically\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3 Cosmopolitan Eating\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e4 Vegetarian Eating\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e5 Body Image\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e6 Social Class Trajectories\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e7 Movements within Canada\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e8 Movement to Canada\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e9 Embodiment\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConclusion\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAppendix 1: Research Methods\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAppendix 2: Study Participant Demographics\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"UBC Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52702306173208,"sku":"9780774828581","price":24.37,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/acquired-tastes-why-families-eat-the-way-they-do-paperback-softback-9780774828581","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
