Eating Habits - Food, Meals and Taste in Britain since the 1960s

Offering some surprising insights into historical and cultural developments, this fascinating look at eating habits in Britain reveals there have been no fundamental changes in the direction of trends in eating since the 1960s.

Reframing the history of the last 50 years and giving perspective on planning for the future, the author, a recognised expert, reflects on disruptions and innovations caused by COVID-19, Brexit and the National Food Strategy in 2021.
