“…In addition, the presentation in the form of a spray is a very practical and easyto-use. The lack of facilities within street food vendors is among the reasons of the outbreak of foodborne diseases (Verma & Mishra, 2020). The availability of low cost and convenient disinfectant sprays may help in the application of the food safety regulation.…”

Motivated by combat against the spread of foodborne diseases, the formulations of simple and easy-to-use spray disinfectants containing Cinnamomum zeylanicum and Ocimum gratissimum essential oils were studied. Central composite experimental design was used in the development of stable products with optimal essential oil content for antimicrobial efficacy. It also allowed minimizing the alcohol content which was used to ensure miscibility between the essential oils and the aqueous phase. Trans-cinnamaldehyde was the major compound in the C. zeylanicum essential oil. Its low toxicity allowed the formulation of a risk-free product despite the great variability in the chemical composition of the essential oil. Cooked food coated with a spray containing 1% of this essential oil, in combination with Thymus vulgaris tincture, could be preserved for 3 days without refrigeration. Eugenol was the major component of O. gratissimum essential oil, followed by 1,8cineole and methylchavicol. Sprays containing 1.5% of this essential oil were effective against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. Xanthan gum proved to be a good essential oil-trapping agent under accelerated ageing conditions at 45 °C.

The main cause of obesity is long-term energy imbalance between consumed calories and expended calories. Anthropometry is a screening tool that determine obesity in a general population. Obesity detection can be done by assessing BMI ranges. This survey represents the age of the participants ranged between 18-30 years. The age was grouped into the table between two categories i.e., 18-24 and 25-30 years.18-24 years participants population was greater than 25-30 years. Male participants were greater than female participants. Male were 41.7% and female were 58.3%. Most of the students stays in paying guest accommodation. Students stays in paying guest accommodation 37.5%, hostel 33.3% and home 29.2%. According to survey, the BMI range showed, many of respondents were overweight. About 44% respondents were overweight, 34% respondents were obese, 20% respondents were normal, and 2% respondents were underweight. Usually respondent's consumes non-healthy foods which contains high fat content, according to survey report 75% respondent's consumes healthy foods, 31.30% respondents daily consume beverages, 25% respondent's consume high fat food, 43.80% respondent's consume junk food and 37.50% respondent's consume high saturated food as their meals which shows eating pattern of them. Respondents have a lifestyle with low physical activity and disordered eating habits, which promotes them to a risk of being overweight and obese. 65.5% of respondents go to gym and 34.5% do yoga to make themselves physically fit and healthy.

Transformations in modern lifestyles have caused changes in people’s food consumption, elevating the status of street foods to one of the favored choices. However, very few studies have been dedicated to investigating why street foods have become a popular choice among consumers. This study aimed to apply a modified version of the original theory of planned behavior (TPB), which includes domains affecting the intention to purchase while adding perceived food quality and value together with convenience. A total of 1361 respondents answered a survey based on the extended TPB constructs. Focusing on college graduates in the country, Structural Equation Modeling was utilized for the statistical analysis. Convenience proved to have the highest indirect effect on the intention to purchase street foods, explaining street foods’ ubiquitous and patronized image—which affected the TPB domains. This was followed by perceived food quality, which also had a significant direct effect on the behavioral domains and a higher indirect effect on street food purchase intention than perceived food value. Further discussion on the effect between behavioral domains was presented. This study also provided recommendations that street food vendors, the government, related private businesses, and consumers themselves can use to improve a sustainable community and businesses. In conclusion, this study contributes to the limited literature and promotion of purchasing and consuming street foods.
