AB  - Examines the relationships between gender and dining out. Argues
that there are demonstrable continuities between food consumption in the
home and in the arena of public dining. At the heart of the food system
in Britain is the role played by women as family “carers”.
Women sustain a dietary culture which is seen as health‐giving. Despite
this, they are often excluded in a variety of ways from enjoyment of
food and, in the context of commercial provision of food, are
marginalized as consumers. Explores these issues in the context of
theoretical discourse on food‐culture relationships and market data on
food consumption outside the home, concluding that, however effective
nutrition education may be, advances in healthy eating provision by
commercial hospitality organizations are antithetical to the principal
of hedonism which underpins such provision.
