“…1 Between 1987 and 1999=2000 the proportion of total food expenditure allocated to FAFH increased from 14% to 23% as illustrated in Table 1. Previous studies analyzing the determinants of FAFH in Europe have tended to focus on the entire market with little regard given for the diversity of the disaggregated sectors considered in this study, namely, quick-service (fast food and takeaway) and full-service (hotel and restaurant meals) (Manrique & Jensen, 1998;Mihalopoulos & Demoussis, 2001). 2 Given the diversity of outlets within the food service sector, a disaggregated approach is important in understanding the dynamics of the FAFH industry.…”

“…Several studies have shown that time valuation, in particular for the female spouse in the household who participates in the labor market, plays an important role in food away from home demand (Byrne, Capps and Saha, 1996;Jensen & Yen, 1996;Kinsey, 1983;Manrique & Jensen, 1998;Prochaska & Schrimper, 1973;Redman 1980;Yen, 1993). However, quantification of the variable varies across studies.…”

“…Given that the time costs for meals must consider all aspects, including preparation, eating and cleaning time (35) , this association may be related to a greater amount of time afforded to these women through not having paid work commitments. Alternatively, those who do work may be under more time pressure, which may increase the demand for convenience products such as fast food (24,(36)(37)(38) . Further, blue-collar employees may work non-standard working hours (e.g.…”

Objective: Foods prepared outside of the home have been linked to less-than-ideal nutrient profiles for health. We examine whether the locations where meals are prepared and consumed are associated with socio-economic predictors among women. Design: A cross-sectional study using self-reported data. We examined multiple locations where meals are prepared and consumed: (i) at home; (ii) fast food eaten at home; (iii) fast food eaten at the restaurant; (iv) total fast food; (v) non-fast-food restaurant meals eaten at home; (vi) non-fast-food restaurant meals eaten at the restaurant; and (vii) all non-fast-food restaurant meals. Multilevel logistic regression was used to determine whether frequent consumption of meals from these sources varied by level of education, occupation, household income and area-level disadvantage. Setting: Metropolitan Melbourne, Australia. Subjects: A total of 1328 women from forty-five neighbourhoods randomly sampled for the SocioEconomic Status and Activity in Women study. Results: Those with higher educational qualifications or who were not in the workforce (compared with those in professional employment) were more likely to report frequent consumption of meals prepared and consumed at home. High individualand area-level socio-economic characteristics were associated with a lower likelihood of frequent consumption of fast food and a higher likelihood of frequent consumption of meals from non-fast-food sources. The strength and significance of relationships varied by place of consumption. Conclusions: The source of meal preparation and consumption varied by socioeconomic predictors. This has implications for policy makers who need to continue to campaign to make healthy alternatives available in out-of-home food sources. Keywords Eating behavioursFast food Socio-economic position Over 60 % of Australian adults and 25 % of children are now overweight or obese (1) and therefore at increased risk for multiple adverse health outcomes, including type 2 diabetes, CVD, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, asthma, arthritis and some cancers (2,3) . Consumption of energy-dense foods and beverages is a key modifiable risk factor for weight gain and obesity (4,5) . Fast-food outlets are one of the most recognisable sources of energy-dense foods, despite some outlets offering a limited range of healthy options. In Britain, the energy density of traditional fast-food menus is reported to be up to 65 % higher than that of the average British diet and more than twice as high as that recommended for a healthy diet (6) . Although it is recognised that energydense meals can also be obtained from sources other than fast-food outlets, there is little consistent information available on the nutritional quality of meals from nonfast-food restaurants, although it has been suggested that foods from full-service restaurants may be equally healthy or even unhealthier than some fast-food options (7) . Compared with meals prepared at home, and acknowledging that meals from all sources are likely to be hig...
