本文借鉴了实证数据，从定性研究调查问题周围的食物选择和偏好的一组34异性同居夫妇，有和没有孩子住在家里，在澳大利亚的农村地区。它探讨了他们的日常饮食习惯和偏好，他们对健康饮食的看法，以及他们对外卖食品和外出就餐的态度。研究发现，大多数参与者在食物偏好上表现出保守主义，缺乏对异国情调的渴望和大都市中产阶级成员特有的对食物的敏感性。他们认为最令人愉快和最有价值的食物是怀旧、传统、平衡、健康、家庭团聚和社交。
This article draws upon empirical data from a qualitative study investigating issues around the food choices and preferences of a group of 34 heterosexual cohabiting couples, with and without children living at home, in a rural region of Australia. It explores their everyday food habits and preferences, their notions of a healthy diet and their use of and attitudes towards takeaway food and dining out. The study found that the participants, for the most part, demonstrated a conservatism in their food preferences, lacking the desire for exotica and the gourmand sensibility that characterises members of the metropolitan middle class. The aspects of food they found most pleasurable and valuable were nostalgia, tradition, balance, health, family togetherness and sociality.
