Beyond nutritionism the sociocultural dimensions of food habitsJean-Pierre Poulain
1) Food is more than just nutrition - it also has social, cultural, and identity-related dimensions. How food is prepared and consumed expresses relationships to class, ethnicity, and gender.
2) Food cultures around the world contribute to individual and group identity but are changing over time due to various factors. The challenge is promoting nutritional and food quality as well as healthy lifestyles.
3) Food studies is an interdisciplinary field that examines the social, cultural, and health aspects of food practices and habits. It forms connections between issues related to what foods are eaten and how.

26. Activities:
Please describe them in details, so that the teacher could be able to
implement them by himself/herself
I. PLANET EARTH CHECK-UP
Duration (hours): 2h (2 meetings, 1 hour/meeting)
Time Description of activity
First
meeting
10‘
The teacher previously divides the students into 7 groups
and asks them to choose a continent and collect info on it
regarding:
- Continent area, population and population density;
- Opinions on soil resources of the continent referred to;
- Natural premises of agricultural development on the
continent referred to;
- Specific crops;
- Today’s particular problems of the continent’s
inhabitants.
At the beginning of the class, the teacher asks each group to
create a small-scale map of the chosen continent (it can be
3D or low-relief), using the data they have gathered.
40‘ Students in each group work together to create the map.
27.
28. Time Description of activity
Second
meeting
35‘
Each group chooses a spokesman who presents the continent in front
of the class using the materials they have prepared during the previous
class. Each group has max. 5 minutes.
5‘ The teacher briefly presents the strong connection between food and
population growth, helping students make connections between the
data.
“Do you consider there are countries/continents which do not fully use
some resources because they do not know their benefits?”
10‘ Students are then encouraged to compare the information their
colleagues presented and notice where differences lead to.
„What do you think determines a population’s quantitative and
qualitative evolution?“
Do you think migration in Romania from urban to rural areas has
increased because people want to grow vegetables and cereals for self
consumption, precisely to manage closely their cultivation?
„ Which do you think is a bigger problem: the energy sources or the
food crisis?“
Materials and equipment:
Cardboard, polystyrene sheets, markers, tempera colors, brushes, glue,
photos, PC, projector, etc
Teaching tools:
Ex. Kit, handbooks, websites, books, references to develop the topic, etc

29. II . PLANET OF THE THREE “WORLDS”
Duration (minutes): 50‘
Time Description of activity
15‘ The teacher presents a relative recent study FAO published which claims there are
three “worlds” in point of nutrition:
One world has a population of about 1000 millions, for which food supply is not
a concern (2500 kcal/day/person) and overlaps more or less developed
countries;
The opposite is the world with more than 1000 million people (1 out of 4 are
children) who live with less than 1 USD/day and suffer severally from
malnutrition (<1480 kcal/day/person);
In between these two, about 4000 millions live in countries where the economy
isn’t working very well, but the inhabitants still wish to implement and develop
the most suitable agricultural practices.
25‘ Using brainstorming, students are encouraged to debate over the multiple challenges
mankind is facing today, such as:
- Disagreement between food suppliers and human’s real nutritional needs;
- Agriculture’s impact over rural population’s occupancy level and income level;
- Agricultural and food industry modern production technologies consequences
over human and animal health;
10‘ Students are then asked to think about possible solutions.
„How do you think human health can be preserved given the use of modern
production technologies?
„ What are the effects of the production’s systems over the environment’s global
sustainability and “How can we counteract? “

31. III. WHAT AND HOW CAN WE COMPOST THE BIODEGRADABLE
WASTE FROM OUR HOUSEHOLD
Duration (hours): 2
Time Description of activity
1h Place of progress: school yard, farmer’s households
The students learn in a practical manner which are the biodegradable waste
in a household, how and when can they be turned into compost. They were
told:
What you need is: a plastic container, a little door for the compost
removal, sand and gravel, wooden slats or just a simple fence around
the place of the biodegradable waste.
How to build the container for composting:
• Drilling holes in the lid, base and walls of the container for airing;
• Placing 3 rows of sand or gravel at the base of the container for drainage;
• Placing wooden slats above the sand/gravel;
• For the plastic container, it is necessary to fix (mount) a small door right
above the sand/gravel, where the wooden slats are placed;
• The worms and earthworms can be introduced in the plastic container if the
container is completely closed and if it’s not placed directly on ground, to
speed up the composting process.
What can we put inside the composting container: cow/horse
manure; green or sear chipped branches; green leaves; green plants
without seeds or roots; plant peels; vegetables; fruits egg shells.
What shouldn’t be put inside the composting container: cat/dog
excrements; bones; oils; greases; sauces; seeds or weeds with roots.
32. Time Description of activity
1h Students are then guided to create their own
composting container and use it in their courtyard. They
are recommended to place the composting container
straight on ground, over a layer of leaves and branches
for drainage.
Students learn to draw out the compost through the
lower part of the composting container.
The teacher asks students to think about different
aspects:
„What distinguishes the products cultivated using
compost from the ones bought in the supermarket?
„How do you appreciate the taste, colour, smell, shape,
vitamins conts in these types of product?
Materials and equipment:
Boots, shovels, plastic containers, little doors for the compost removal,
sand and gravel, wooden slats (or simple fences), cow/horse manure;
green or sear chipped branches; green leaves; green plants without
seeds or roots; plant peels; vegetables; fruits egg shells, earthworms.
Teaching tools:
Ex. Kit, handbooks, websites, books, references to develop the topic, etc

33. IV. MANURE MANAGEMENT
Duration (hours): 2
Time Description of activity
1h Type of activity: theoretical
Place of progress: Information and Documentation Center
The teacher presents types of manure and their extremely favorable
effects on the plant’s growth.
Students are informed of the importance of a correct manure
management, compost, manure, fluid and pasty dejections for the
agricultural activities.
COMPOST is made through different organic waste fermentation,
adding mineral substances sometimes (lime, ash, etc). Pilled in heaps,
these wastes must be wetted from time to time.
MANURE results from garbage’s almost complete fermentation. It is a
very effective fertilizer and can be used especially in vegetable growing,
hotbeds, greenhouses and on fields.
PASTY and FLUID DEJECTIONS are collected from battery bird, from
shelter’s septic tanks. It has a dry substance content of max. 15% and are
very rich in phosphorus.
In order to be used, solid materials must first be removed and
dejections must be homogenized during administration.
34. Time Description of activity
1h Type of activity: practical
Place of progress: greenhouses, households and other locations decided
upon context
Students visit local greenhouses / cultivated fields and participate to the
distribution of manure / compost / pasty, etc.
Materials and equipment:
PC, projector, photos, boots, shovels.
Teaching tools:
Ex. Kit, handbooks, websites, books, references to develop the topic, etc

36. V. UNCONVENTIONAL FOOD PRODUCTS
Duration (hours): 2
Time Description of activity
1h The teacher describes some of the unconventional proteins sources, such
as:
,,Leafs proteins“ – fibrous wastes of many crops are easy to preserve
and are often a precious food for ruminants. That is why there's a
growing interest in the possibility of edible proteins extraction from
fodder and leafs which are secondary products of a different form of
agriculture (e.g. sugar beet, potato, peas, turnip and jute).
Microscopic algae are another source of unconventional proteins.
They form their cellular substance through photosynthesis from
carbon dioxide and a nutritive salts solution. Their protein content is
sufficiently high (even over 50%) and offers the advantage of a lower
content of nucleic acid, as a result of the slightly smaller growth rate
compared to that of bacteria and dregs.
Spirulina, a greenish blue alga, is the species which was the subject of
most intense studies regarding large-scale production. It was part of
inhabitants’ traditional diet from certain areas in Mexico and Ciad.
The dried alga contains about 63% proteins, 2–3 % lipids, 16–18 %
carbohydrates. Its cellulose content is remarkably low, which makes
the alga very digestible.
Students were mentioned it is necessary to evaluate the possibility of
unconventional proteins production, derived from fibrous wastes, fodder
crops, microbial saprophytes (bacteria, fungi, dregs and algae), other than
the conventional ones (meat, milk, eggs, flour, fish, vegetables and
oleaginous seeds).
37. Time Description of activity
1h Students create a small brochure consisting of all
the observations on the existence of possible
unconventional food as well as other significant
aspects. The brochure’s title is “Healthy food for
everybody”.
Materials and equipment:
PC, projector, paper, photos, markers, pencils, glue, stapler.
Teaching tools:
Ex. Kit, handbooks, websites, books, references to develop the topic, etc
www.inpcp.ro
www.inpcp-campanie.ro
38. Evaluation tools suggested:
At the end of all activities, students will present
a brief report containing depictions of what
they discovered; unconventional food products
can be displayed as a miniature exhibition, self-
evaluation questionnaires, records from the
class journal.
