Take a moment to look around your immediate environment. What food is easily available to you? Are you more likely to grab whatever is easiest and closest to you or are you willing to walk further, pay more or wait longer for something else you really want to eat? These questions highlight some of the important factors in the food environment.
Most people make food-related decisions based on habits and don’t expect to spend much time and effort (referred to as agency) on choosing what to eat. We are therefore influenced by what we see and experience, whether it is an advert for a certain food, the availability or the cost of certain foods or cultural beliefs. The main aim of this book is to provide you with substantial evidence that improving our food environment is crucial to our health and well-being.
