Publication name: Understanding food culture in Scotland and its comparison in an international context
Date: 08 October 2010
Description: NHS Health Scotland commissioned this report in order to begin building an understanding of how contemporary food cultures influence diet in Scotland and to provide possible pointers to future food and health policy development in Scotland. The report compares the culture in Scotland pertaining to food with three other countries that are on a par economically but have lower levels of adult obesity to help make recommendations for key considerations in relation to food culture which should be taken into account in developing future food and health policy, wider food and drink policy, and/or food-related practice in Scotland.
