“…Lane and Fisher (2013, p. 624) report that students follow famous chefs on television for entertainment purposes and often have a positive perception of chefs in promoting quality content and raising awareness about food. Villani et al (2015) report that television cooking shows and celebrity chefs in Australia have no effect on the daily diet of adults and that people watch these programs for new cooking ideas and entertainment. Bodenlos and Wormuth (2013, p. 10) reported that consumption of chocolate-coated sugar increased by watching cooking programs on television.…”

Bu çalışmanın amacı, izleyicilerin yemek programı ve ünlü şeflerle ilgili inanç ve tutumları üzerine bir değerlendirme yapmaktır. Bu araştırmanın evrenini televizyonda yayınlanan yemek programlarını ve ünlü şefleri izleyen 18 yaşından büyük kadın ve erkek izleyiciler oluşturmaktadır. E-anket olarak düzenlenen ölçek (Villani ve diğerleri, 2015) kolayda örneklem yöntemi ile televizyonda yemek programı izleyicisi olan 196 kişi üzerinde uygulanmıştır. Yapılan analizler sonucunda katılımcıların % 52,1'inin, tarifler ve pişirme yöntemleri ile ilgili daha fazla bilgi kazanmak amacı ile televizyon yemek programlarını izlediği saptanmıştır. Katılımcıların % 22,7'sinin, yemek pişirme becerilerini geliştirmek amacı ile televizyon programlarından aldıkları tarifleri yaptıklarını belirtmişlerdir. Yine aynı oranda katılımcılar (% 22,7), hiçbir zaman bir televizyon yemek programından herhangi bir tarif kullanmadığını bildirmektedirler. Katılımcıların bir kısmı (% 26,3) ünlü şeflerin programlarında beslenme ve diyet önerileri sunmadıklarını belirtmektedirler. Katılımcıların önemli bir kısmının (% 49,0) ünlü aşçıların nitelikli olduğunu düşündükleri tespit edilmiştir. Katılımcıların % 37,6'sı televizyon yemek programlarının diyeti üzerinde bir etkisi olmadığını belirtmektedirler. Elde edilen bulgular ışığında uygulamacılara ve ileriki araştırmacılara öneriler getirilmiştir.

“…However, such views may be purely personal and not reflective of actual influence of such television programs. A recent Australian study identified that adult participants did not consider celebrity chefs and TV cooking shows affected their dietary intakes [ 46 ]. Young people are also high users of social media and Australian studies have shown the effects of social media on particular dietary behaviors, such as risky alcohol consumption [ 47 ].…”

Background: Education and policy measures within schools are valuable strategies to promote health. This study explored views of experienced food-related educators, researchers and policy-makers regarding their recommended strategies to improve Australian adolescents’ knowledge of nutrition and food systems (N&FS). Methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with twenty-one experienced food-related experts from across Australia. Interviews were conducted either by telephone or face-to-face. Recorded interviews were transcribed verbatim and analyzed thematically. Results: Five central themes and five sub-themes were identified from food professionals’ suggestions for best strategies to improve adolescents’ knowledge of N&FS. The central themes included: (1) specific improvements in schools’ core curricula; (2) pre-service and in-service training of school teachers about N&FS; (3) training students to develop a critical mind about N&FS issues; (4) multidisciplinary collaborations to improve school-based N&FS education; and (5) a supportive N&FS education environment for students. Conclusion and implication: These findings provide a guide for curriculum developers, educational policy developers, and food educators to incorporate the suggested N&FS strategies into Australian education programs in order to improve Australian adolescents’ knowledge and skills of N&FS issues. The results of this investigation also may assist the development of international N&FS curricula guides.

“…Consequently, these shows predominantly educated their audiences rather than entertaining them; however, entertainment is increasingly the primary goal of broadcasted cooking shows (Collins, 2009;Nathanson, 2009). Consumer reception studies have shown that adults (Villani, Egan, Keogh, & Clifton, 2015) and children (Goodchild, 2012) watch TV cooking shows for both entertainment and education. Thus, TV cooking shows may be a suitable 'edutainment' platform (De Solier, 2005).…”

For several decades, television consumption has been crucial in the complex web of factors underlying the obesity epidemic. It has been suggested that if television cooking shows would endorse healthy eating styles, they may have positive effects on consumers’ eating habits. This study empirically investigated the consequences of exposing children (N = 85, aged 9–12 years) to an existing television cooking show episode endorsing the consumption of fruits and vegetables compared with exposure to a non‐food‐related science show. The measures included pre‐test and post‐test attitudes toward health/nutrition and fruits/vegetables, as well as state preferences for a list of healthy and unhealthy foods. At the end of the study, children were separately given the choice between a popular cookie and a piece of fruit as a reward; this was used as a behavioural measure. The results of a logistic regression on the behavioural choice measure showed that the mere exposure to one episode of the television cooking show significantly increased the odds that the children would choose a piece of fruit over a cookie. Repeated‐measures analyses showed that watching this single episode also decreased children's state appetite for unhealthy foods. State appetites for healthy foods and attitudes toward health/nutrition or fruits/vegetables did not change after watching the television cooking show episode. In sum, existing television cooking shows that endorse healthy eating positively influence children's food consumption in the short term and may have the potential to be used as platforms for nutrition education.
