目的:为了检查和分析随着时间的推移的24个食品项目之间的撒丁岛和Malta.Setting:数据收集在2001年在撒丁岛和2002年在Malta.Design:一个结构化的定性问卷,阐述了围绕四个主要主题:食品供应,改造,准备和消费习惯,是通过面对面的访谈管理与当地人的帮助。它主要包括开放式的问题,这使我们能够衡量的因素,有助于changes.Subjects:30对母女在每个岛屿的Territory.Results:尽管一个共同的趋势揭示了从谷物,豆类和土豆的转变,肉类产品,脂肪和糖的好处,我们的研究结果显示,在两个岛屿社会之间的食物消费的对比演变。水果和蔬菜,橄榄油和鱼,这是地中海饮食的主要特点的一部分,是其中消费频率在撒丁岛增加的顶级食品之一。在马耳他,除了橄榄油和蔬菜消费量增加外,奶酪和甜点的消费量增幅最大。沿着现代化和生活条件的改善,增强商业可用性和增加食物制备的多样性也被确定为促进食品消费的因素changes.Conclusions:虽然萨尔多-地中海模式正在现代化的影响下发展,它并没有消失。然而,在马耳他,现代化导致了一个更突然的转变,从粮食短缺的状态到富裕的状态,但在文化背景下,身份不再是地中海,而是盎格鲁-撒克逊人。
Objective: To examine and analyse consumption changes over time of 24 food items between Sardinia and Malta.Setting: The data were collected in 2001 in Sardinia and 2002 in Malta.Design: A structured qualitative questionnaire, articulated around four main themes: food supply, transformation, preparation and consumption habits, was administered by face-to-face interviews with the help of a local person. It encompassed mainly open-ended questions, which allowed us to measure factors contributing to change.Subjects: Thirty mother-daughter pairs were interviewed in each insular territory.Results: Despite a common trend revealing a shift away from cereals, pulses and potatoes to the benefit of meat products, fats and sugar, our results showed contrasting evolutions in food consumption between both insular societies. Fruit and vegetables, olive oil and fish, which are part of the main features of the Mediterranean diet, were among the top foods for which consumption frequency has increased in Sardinia. In Malta, besides an increase in olive oil and vegetable consumption, cheeses and desserts showed the highest increase. Along with modernity and improved living conditions, enhanced commercial availability and increased diversity of food preparation were also identified as factors contributing to food consumption changes.Conclusions: Although the Sardo-Mediterranean model is evolving under the impact of modernisation, it is not disappearing. In Malta, however, modernity has led to a more sudden shift from a state of food shortage to one of affluence, but in a cultural context where the identity is no longer Mediterranean but Anglo-Saxon.
