Valet av lunchrätt
Sammanfattning
This research aim was to examine the relationship between the choice of
lunch dish, level of education, gender and age of the participants. The
understanding of diet and it´s influence on health was also of interest to
the research, as was cooking interest and travel habits. The goal was to
demonstrate how these factors affect the adult individuals in their choice
of lunch. A questionnaire was filled in by 99 guests in a chosen
restaurant. The results show that many of these factors influence the
choice of dish, especially those related to gender. Gender differences in
choice of lunch were typified by men choosing traditional Swedish, whereas
women chose Asian and Salad. This choice was also shown to be influenced by
their understanding of health and body consciousness. The factors relating
to education and age showed more distinctive patterns among the male
participants. Younger men and higher educated men chose the Asian option
more often than older and lesser educated men.
