発表要旨
It is understood that traditional, localised, production-supply oriented and often fermented foods plays vital role in the life of common people in south India by providing simple, cheap and healthy food to lead a better life. Policy changes, Public Distribution System (PDS) and other socio-economic welfare programs initiated by Government of India and Government of Tamil Nadu in the 1970 through 1990s provides preliminary kick-off to the dietary changes. It was accelerated through the introduction of media especially satellite television channels, imposed westernised foods in the Indian market in the late 1990s made undeniable mark on changes of consumption pattern of common people. We assume that people now in south India will consume less of traditional fermented foods. We also presume that traditional food consumption pattern may succumbed to changes in terms of availability, preparation, intake frequency, quality and quantity of foods, modification and variety based on dynamic needs of the people. In order to understand contemporary condition and complexity of traditional food consumption and its changes and its effect on people’s socio, economic, cultural and healthy life, this study is undertaken. For this study we purposefully choose Tamil Nadu state as study site, because the most of the cereal based indigenous fermented foods originated from here and diffused to entire south India. Using snow ball sampling method, we interviewed seller and producers of traditional and fermented foods in the market and also we interviewed regular customers of those seller and producers. We also conducted focus group discussion among the mixed group of volunteer participants with their age ranged from 20 to 75. In this study, it was found that people consumption pattern drastically changed over the time from millets to rice and rice to wheat and wheat to westernised fast food. Cooking style, eating behaviour, frequency of eating outside, sharing of food is also considerably changed. It was found that access to education, employment and income is increased after 1990s, these increased income often used to improve their diet by purchasing more non-traditional foods from the market.
