Objective: To describe and analyze the evaluations regarding traditional food among a group of migrant indigenous women residing in the metropolitan area of Monterrey (AMM), As well as the strategies used to exercise their food knowledge. Methodology: A qualitative investigation was carried out through interviews with 10 indigenous migrant women. Results: It was found that for the participants, recreating their recipes from yesteryear is a source of pride and there is a daily effort to reproduce them, despite the difficulties in doing so. They report that in the countryside people eat in a more "natural" and "tasty" way because there is a productive and emotional bond with food. Likewise, it was observed that the strategies to recreate their recipes are to buy in markets that sell products from their towns, and for their relatives to send them food from their communities. Limitations: Some of the interviews were done by telephone, so it was not possible to pay attention to the body language of some migrant women. Conclusions: The fear of rejection in the host society constitutes an element that discourages the reproduction of food knowledge. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

From the theory and method of social representations (Moscovici, 1979; Abric, 2001) this paper answered how the construction of the ideal body is dynamized in eating practices from the virtual spaces of young university students in the state of Chiapas during SARS-COV-2 confinement. The research is based on the anthropology of food and digital ethnography on the WhatsApp and Facebook networks. This paper pointed out the modified practices due to the pace of life and family detachment, as well as information consumption, education, entertainment, and models of transformation of the construction of the ideal body through social networks.The results conclude thet before and during the pandemic, the perception of the ideal body among young college girls was restructured by basing their social representations on certain eating practices and on the experience of using Information and Communication Technologies (ICT).

Objective: To analyse food practices deployed by popular leaders of community kitchens in Argentina during the Covid-19 pandemic. Methodology: The approach is qualitative, and the selection of the subjects incorporated into the study followed the criteria of purposive sampling. Sixty-three in-depth interviews in Gran La Plata (Buenos Aires). Results: In the results we can describes the entanglement of economic and organizational resources, local knowledge, cooking and feeding habits, etc., which were activated facing the food emergency. It shows that feeding in popular neighbourhoods during the pandemic has been a complex, diverse, collective practice, as the same time is also territorially inscribed, which keeps it from any homogenizing claim. Limitations: The health emergency and the measures that restricted the circulation of people, limited the possibility of complementing the analysis of discursively reconstructed food practices with direct observation in the field. Conclusions: The position of popular leaders in community kitchens was not only to intermediate between state/civil food assistance and household needs, but they were part of neighbourhood organisation and leadership, they dialogued with local cultures and were able to question native "tastes". For all this, their performance was considered effective, covering food needs as well as providing social and emotional support for households facing uncertainty. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

La organización colectiva del comer se sostiene en la tensión permanente entre el solidarismo filantrópico y las prácticas de reciprocidad de quienes participan a diario en el comedor. El objetivo es identificar las emociones vinculadas a las prácticas de reciprocidad que despliegan las mujeres que participan en comedores comunitarios en General Pueyrredón en el periodo 2015-2020. Los cuerpos/emociones de las mujeres entrevistadas resisten las desigualdades y a la necesidad alimentaria desde hace más de tres décadas. Las prácticas que despliegan desde el amor, la confianza y la esperanza como posibilidad de encuentro con los(as) otros(as) implican una mirada común sobre los horizontes de acción posibles y deseables.

Archaeologists working in the Late Formative Lake Titicaca Basin have identified several "transit communities"—villages that benefited from long-distance exchange. Some scholars suggest that such places played a key role in the development of the Middle Horizon city of Tiwanaku. In this article, we explore the movement of plant goods into transit communities during both the Late Formative (300 BC–AD 500) and Middle Horizon (AD 600–1100) periods. After presenting the current understanding of transit communities, we summarize previous work on both local plants, including tubers and quinoa, and the presence of maize. We then report on a recent microbotanical study of ceramics recovered from excavations at Late Formative Challapata (in the eastern basin) and a burial from the Middle Horizon occupation at Chiripa (in the southern basin). For the first time we identify lowland tubers in the Lake Titicaca Basin, including yuca, sweet potato, and arrowroot. These findings reveal the critical importance of microbotanical analyses for tracing regional connections and foodways in emergent Middle Horizon worlds, as well as the need for more complex interpretive models for things/plants-in-motion.

Este escrito pretende analizar las prácticas alimentarias y los cuidados en salud destinados a niños y niñas sostenidos por mujeres migrantes provenientes de distintas regiones de Bolivia que habitan en un barrio de la ciudad de Córdoba (Argentina) desde la perspectiva de la autoatención en un contexto intercultural. Mediante una metodología cualitativa, situamos el trabajo de campo en el barrio Nuestro Hogar III entre los años 2016 y 2017. Durante ese período, realizamos entrevistas en profundidad a once mujeres migrantes bolivianas, junto con observaciones con y sin participación en distintos espacios barriales. A partir de esto, pudimos evidenciar que las prácticas alimentarias y los cuidados en salud destinados a niños y niñas no se encuentran desvinculadas de la autoatención al interior de los microgrupos sociales, formando parte integrante y activa de la construcción de la salud. Estas prácticas están sustentadas en saberes generacionales y genéricos que les brindan a las mujeres un marco de apoyo y de contención. De este modo, la autoatención está presente en las prácticas alimentarias otorgándoles un sentido reparador, preventivo y promotor de la salud.

El objetivo de esta investigación es identificar los sentidos sociales de las fotografías que acompañan mensajes instantáneos en grupos de WhatsApp por referentes de comedores comunitarios durante el contexto de aislamiento social preventivo y obligatorio en 2020 debido a la pandemia COVID-19 en el Partido de General Pueyrredon (Buenos Aires, Argentina). El diseño es cualitativo con el enfoque de la etnografía virtual. Se trabaja con un corpus de 331 fotografías. Para su análisis se realiza una descripción mencionando los patrones estéticos predominantes, los temas generales que expresan y se reflexiona en torno a la imagen como testimonio. Estos aspectos se discuten a partir del tópico de la abundancia que se connota en las fotografías de comida en contraposición al fantasma del hambre, la escasez y la emergencia alimentaria.

The globalization of agrifood systems in Latin America has led to strong socio-economic, environmental, and food transformations in the countries of the region. These changes have generated increasingly standardized, industrialized, and highly exclusive agro-food systems. At the same time, diversified local practice patterns have been identified in the region that, without implying a total break with these predominant trends, often represent sustainable consumption strategies. Based on a perspective that values heterogeneity and practice as the site of the social, we studied consumers in Quito, Ecuador who include alternative marketing circuits (CIALCOS) among their food purchase patterns. We seek to understand the relationships between their differentiated purchasing practices, their food and their socio-economic traits. We found that, among these consumers in Quito, the use of CIALCOS is high and occurs, in different combinations, but to some degree, at the expense of conventional shopping places. This translates into a healthy diet with high consumption of fruits and vegetables. This pattern is most clearly reflected in two of the three consumer clusters obtained. However, for the largest cluster, the shopping pattern is combined with a more modern diet. The results reflect that food consumers who include CIALCOS in their purchasing strategies assemble flexible, localized practices with different degrees of sustainability. We illustrate, in this way, the intricate and creative pathways of the so-called qualitative consumer turn. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Food culture is currently booming as a topic of academic interest, since food practices have become a common element in the study and analysis of different sociocultural systems. For this reason, this article has set itself the objective of making a multidisciplinary review of the concept, examining the approaches of relevant authors who have addressed the food paradigm in different historical periods. Based on the documentary review, it is concluded that although it constitutes a broad material system of agricultural and culinary practices, food culture is redefined over time mainly by its subjective aspects such as the ideas, values and meanings socially constructed regarding food. which is considered food.

Este número monográfico de la revista Aposta. Revista de Ciencias Sociales se inscribe en un contexto de indagación que venimos desarrollando desde la Sociología de los cuerpos y las emociones, el cual tiene su línea de trabajo en las relaciones que se conforman entre emociones, cuerpos y hambre.

Las prácticas del comer que se dan durante el horario laboral conllevan una necesidad básica asociada a las capacidades cognitivas y energías disponibles para llevar adelante la tarea, a la vez que están en conexión directa con el tiempo, el dinero disponible, las condiciones laborales, la estructura edilicia y la actividad misma del puesto laboral. El objetivo del presente artículo es presentar los diferentes modos en que las trabajadoras de oficinas de la Administración Pública Nacional obtienen el almuerzo de forma cotidiana. Para ello expondremos los diversos modos de proveerse la comida y su relación con el espacio/tiempo de trabajo. A su vez, exponemos la práctica de no comer como forma cotidiana y aceptada de llevar adelante el horario de almuerzo. Concluimos el escrito exponiendo las prácticas alimentarias del comer cotidiano de oficina en relación con los procesos de reproducción de los cuerpos, las emociones y la fuerza de trabajo.

The lockdown due to Covid-19 pandemic and its consecutive phases of de-escalation had a notable effect on the temporality and food consumption spaces of the different members of the household group. This reconfiguration is associated with transformation of food practices. This paper seeks to analyze how these transformations take place. First, it analyzes the reconfiguration of food practices in the household during total lockdown. Secondly, it studies the relationship between these food practices and the use of public space during the de-escalation phases. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Históricamente, en las comunidades del municipio de San Juan del Río Coco, se han presentado un deterioro en el estado nutricional de la niñez en edad de 0 a 5 años, según datos del Ministerio de Salud, afectando aproximadamente al 60% de este grupo etario. Por ello, este estudio busca determinar el estado de desnutrición en la niñez de 0-5 años que son atendidos en el puesto de salud el Carmen, para aportar al diseño de una estrategia comunitaria enfocada en la prevención de la desnutrición. Según el enfoque filosófico es una investigación cuantitativa. Se aplicaron 214 encuestas a las madres de niños-as afectados, entrevistas al personal de salud, líderes comunitarios y familia. La hipótesis se cumple al demostrar que existe una relación inversamente proporcional entre prácticas alimentarias y hábitos de higiene con la desnutrición. Se propone una estrategia comunitaria que pretende contribuir a la erradicación de la desnutrición en la niñez de cero a cinco años en el sector el Carmen, San Juan del rio coco, Nicaragua. Para su ejecución se proponen las siguientes acciones: promover la organización y participación de los diferentes actores sociales, propiciar el acceso de las familias a alimentos nutritivos, sanos y suficientes, y favorecer la sensibilización de la población sobre las consecuencias de la desnutrición en el desarrollo de la niñez de 0-5 años.

El objetivo de este trabajo es identificar prácticas alimentarias y gustos que se configuran en torno a la alimentación de mujeres destinatarias de políticas alimentarias y mujeres empleadas de una oficina de la administración pública en Argentina en 2017. El estudio es descriptivo-exploratorio con un enfoque cualitativo. Se trabajó con los resultados de entrevistas en profundidad en el marco de dos investigaciones vinculadas a la sociología alimentaria, que denotan importantes conexiones y coincidencias en relación a las prácticas alimentarias y a la construcción del gusto. Se reflexionará en torno a las consecuencias que las prácticas alimentarias, el gusto y los consumos cotidianos tiene sobre las energías corporales disponibles.

La malnutrición es un problema de salud pública que afecta a más de la mitad de la población del mundo. Sienta sus bases en los hábitos de consumo que ha promovido la industria alimentaria y que tiene como producto estrella aquellos que tienen poco valor nutritivo y alto contenido de azucares y grasas. Una solución a esta problemática es la educación nutricional, a través de la cual se busca fomentar el desarrollo de actitudes y prácticas que permitan a las personas mejorar y preservar su estado nutricional y desarrollar las competencias necesarias para su inserción en el mundo social.

This article aims to understand how Chinese Muslims negotiate their identities and how they are included and excluded in urban Guangzhou – a multicultural and multi-ethnic city in south China – through the lens of food. This empirical research consists of intersectional and interactional analysis based on narratives of both the ethnic majority and minority groups. Drawing on a qualitative analysis, this research sheds light on both Muslim geographies of encounter and geographical studies on food consumption in China's multicultural context. Focusing on daily food practices of Chinese Hui Muslims who are immigrated to Guangzhou from Islamic communities in northwest China, this research elucidates how these Muslims use food to sustain their religious identities, how they manage their food practices when eating with Han Chinese and how such daily food practices integrate them into or exclude them from the mainstream Han Chinese culture in relation to wider socio-political issues. The key argument of this research indicates that public food spaces, on the one hand, can enable the social interactions between Chinese Muslims and non-Muslims, and on the other hand, gain new meanings through the encounters of these two groups.

Los Tres Cerros 1 (1030-560 BP) ichthyo-archaeological assemblage is analyzed in order to assess fish capture, processing, cooking, consumption and discard practices, as well as subsequent natural processes affecting bones. Taxonomic, anatomical and taphonomic studies were carried out, placing emphasis on fish processing indicators. Several species of Characiformes (mainly Prochilodus lineatus and Hoplias sp.), Siluriformes (Pimelodus sp., Rhamdia quelen, Pterodoras granulosus, Trachelyopterus sp., among others), Perciformes and Synbranchiformes were exploited at the site. These resources were obtained through various fishing methods (individual and mass capture) mainly focused on lentic fluvial environments. Afterwards, they were processed by way of numerous operations (e.g. gutting, decapitation, filleting, splitting) in order to cook meals for in situ consumption, as well as to produce storable foodstuff suitable for delayed consumption and exchange.

Las producciones cerámicas prehistóricas han sido, son y serán una fuente de información inigualable de las sociedades de nuestro pasado. En este trabajo se presentan los estudios realizados, desde una perspectiva de la arqueología feminista, de género y edad, de los recipientes cerámicos del sureste peninsular adscritos a la cultura del Argar. Para ello nos valdremos del análisis de dos registros arqueológicos muy concretos y muy paradigmáticos de esta cultura de la Edad del Bronce, la vida cotidiana y la vida tras la muerte, ambas materializadas en un mismo espacio, los contextos domésticos.

Los procesos de modernización social y sus efectos han sido analizados también en el campo de la alimentación y hoy se discute acerca de la estabilidad o la desestructuración de los hábitos alimentarios. El objetivo de este artículo es contribuir a este debate con datos recientes procedentes de una encuesta de ámbito nacional sobre los hábitos alimentarios de los españoles (ENHALI 2012). Para ello se analizan tres áreas concretas: en primer lugar, la desestructuración de los horarios; en segundo lugar, se indaga si existe un proceso de desfamiliarización de la alimentación; en tercer lugar, se discute si estamos ante un hábito cuyas normas sobre el comer se han individualizado. Tras este estudio se puede afirmar que la sincronía horaria, la importancia que se le da a la sociabilidad y la adhesión a la norma alimentaria presentan una imagen más homogénea que desestructurada de los hábitos alimentarios de la sociedad española.

Food practices and behaviors in the rural area of Texcoco region are related to local food consumption practices --fundamentally based on maize--, however, they are influenced by a series of sociocultural determinants that impose the urban-dominant forms of consumption, as a result of constant interaction of the original cultures with urban life and mass media. This paper presents advances in research on food culture in the region of Santa María Tecuanulco, based on field work done with teenager students in that village. This population group between 12 and 15 years of age contributed very valuable and interesting information of the knowledge they have about edible local products and the way they are consumed.
