The Food and Agriculture Organization is encouraging people to return to traditional foods, some of which many have abandoned because they have been stigmatized by the spread of Western dietary tastes, foods, and norms. This project looks at what the FAO-recommended change would actually mean: who would produce, what factors would affect production, the downstream effects in the household and the local economy, the connections to increasing mobility. This project asks, can the development of niche traditional diet become a pathway to economic success for rural communities? Understanding how the use of traditional foods can promote healthy eating as well as economic growth for socioeconomically disadvantaged rural communities is critical to the development of sustainable food programs and fostering food security for at-risk populations throughout our country and world.Dr. Jeffrey Cohen of the Ohio State University will explore how marginalized residents meet the challenges of a changing economy and the escalating costs of a changing rural diet. The PI will investigate these questions through the lens of a relatively accessible, low-cost source of protein that is produced at home. While once looked down upon as not modern, traditional food demand has increased in recent years, both for local consumption, as an alternative to expensive packaged foods, and in response to increased interest from tourism. The project asks how producers rethink production, the market, and labor, as they produce for the market rather than domestic consumption; and how this impacts household structure, household organization, and gender roles. Data will be collected through surveys, market mapping, food journals, pile sorts and photo elicitation to develop food taxonomies, and household food-focused interviews.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

联合国粮食及农业组织正在鼓励人们回归传统食品，其中一些已经被抛弃，因为西方饮食口味、食物和规范的传播让他们蒙上了污名。这个项目着眼于粮农组织建议的变化的实际含义：谁将生产，哪些因素将影响生产，家庭和当地经济的下游影响，与增加流动性的联系。该项目提出的问题是，小众传统饮食的发展能否成为农村社区获得经济成功的途径？了解传统食品的使用如何促进社会经济弱势农村社区的健康饮食和经济增长，对于发展可持续食品计划和促进我国乃至全世界高危人群的食品安全至关重要。俄亥俄州立大学的杰弗里·科恩将探讨边缘化居民如何应对不断变化的经济和不断变化的农村饮食成本不断上升的挑战。PI将通过一种相对容易获得的、低成本的在家生产的蛋白质来源的镜头来调查这些问题。虽然传统食品一度被认为不是现代食品，但近年来，传统食品的需求有所增加，既用于当地消费，作为昂贵包装食品的替代品，也是对旅游业日益增长的兴趣的回应。该项目询问生产者如何重新考虑生产、市场和劳动力，因为他们为市场而不是国内消费生产；以及这如何影响家庭结构、家庭组织和性别角色。数据将通过调查、市场地图、食品期刊、堆积分类和照片启发来收集，以制定食品分类，以及以家庭食品为重点的访谈。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
