| Summary |
In recent years, the environment surrounding the eating habits of Japanese people has changed greatly in relation to factors such as unbalanced nutrition, irregular meals, increases in obesity and lifestyle diseases, skipping breakfast, dependence on imported food, crisis in traditional food culture, and food safety, etc. Starting with the 2005 “Special Public Opinion Survey on Shokuiku,” the Cabinet Office has been conducting surveys to see changes in the environment regarding the eating habits and making inquiries about topics such as interest in shokuiku (food and nutrition education), current eating habits/lifestyle habits, and meals with family. Taking into consideration the formulation of the second Basic Plan for the Promotion of shokuiku and its implementation in 2011, items such as the advantages of eating breakfast and the advantages of eating together, etc. were added to this survey. |
