考察食品购物性质的研究通常会考虑距离去多家商店最近或总的距离的距离。这类研究构成了新研究的一部分，涉及的是所谓的“食物沙漠”以及这个术语所固有的问题，包括大多数人不会在离他们最近的商店购物，而且行动不便的问题因人而异。增加关于购物特征的知识库可能对旨在增加健康食品购买的行为干预和项目有用。在这项研究中，我们调查了627名照顾者的购物特征，他们的孩子在密歇根州弗林特的三家大型儿科诊所之一的儿科新鲜农产品处方计划中登记。我们将这些特点与一个新的食品合作社的潜力进行了比较，以改善健康食品的地理可及性。特别是，出于与健康相关的原因以及当地经济发展的原因，我们建议将处方计划扩大到这个新的合作社。我们的工作将营养、食品获取和经济发展领域的研究人员和从业者感兴趣的话题联系起来。
Research examining the nature of food shopping often considers proximity to the nearest or overall distance travelled to multiple stores. Such studies make up a portion of new work on so-called ‘food deserts’ and the issues inherent in the term, including that most people do not shop at their nearest store, and mobility challenges vary vastly from one person to the next. Increasing the knowledge base on shopping characteristics could be useful for behavioral interventions and programs aimed at increasing healthy food shopping. In this study, we examined the shopping characteristics of 627 caregivers whose children were enrolled in a pediatric fresh produce prescription program at one of three large pediatric clinics in Flint, Michigan. We compare these characteristics to the potential of a new food cooperative to improve geographic accessibility to healthy food. In particular, we propose the expansion of the prescription program to this new cooperative for health-related as well as local economic development reasons. Our work bridges topics of interest to researchers and practitioners working in nutrition, food access, and economic development.
