ABSTRACT This study assessed the prevalence and predictors of not eating lunch on school days among Canadian children using dietary data from the 2015 Canadian Community Health Survey-Nutrition (n = 2,991 children aged 6–17 years). On a given school day, more than 1 in 20 students reported eating no lunch. Students were more likely to miss lunch if they were older, lived in a food insecure household, or smoked. Sex, ethnicity, income and weight status were not associated with lunch consumption. Future research is needed to fully understand the frequency, causes and consequences of missing lunch on school days in Canada.

ABSTRACT This research examines food security using actual prices paid by a large panel of U.S. households of consumer-packed goods across seven store formats (e.g., grocery stores, drug stores, and convenience stores). Adjusted for household size and income, the percent of budget spent by three affluency groups (lower, moderate, and higher) found similar spending ratios at the two largest store formats, grocery and mass discounters. Low-income households paid significantly less overall and paid significantly lower prices in three of the four most shopped store formats. The findings suggest poorer consumers are more food secure than previously believed.

ABSTRACT This exploratory study aimed at investigating the perceptions of the youth regarding the summer food environment using photovoice methodology. A 4-week summer food education program. Eleven youth, 13–18 years were recruited, and 5 (45%) students completed the study. Participants received one of each: introduction to photovoice, disposable camera, logbook, handout of photography tips, and photo release forms followed by participation in a focus group. The naturalized approach was utilized to transcribe and analyzed using grounded theory. Seven themes emerged, including improved availability of and access to healthier, affordable food supply and an improved food environment.

ABSTRACT The study explored parental attitudes and beliefs concerning child involvement in meal preparation, and sending healthy packed lunches to schools. Focus groups (n = 6) and demographic surveys were completed with 27 parents who packed their elementary child’s lunch at least twice a week. Qualitative thematic analysis of transcripts using inductive and deductive approaches were completed. Perceived benefits of packing lunches included food quality, control, and safety. Perceived barriers to involving children in decisions included a child’s attitude, time, mess, and cost. Parents believe child-friendly cookbooks, professional nutrition guidance, and child-inclusive cooking classes are beneficial to support healthy meals.

ABSTRACT This study assessed nutritional quality of foods donated through large-scale food drives. A cross-sectional, photo-based design was used. Donated foods were categorized according to Healthy Eating Research Nutrition Guidelines for Ranking Charitable Food (HER). Means of sodium, saturated fat, and sugar were calculated and compared with HER nutrient guidelines for 4,484 foods. Only 19.4% of donations were categorized as good nutritional quality. No significant differences existed between food drive events. The association between food insecurity, poor diet quality, and poor health outcomes may be mediated by unhealthy foods donated through food drives. Strategies to facilitate healthy food availability are essential.

ABSTRACT We explore the relationship between food insecurity and geographic position in Silver City, NM. Using a survey of more than 100 respondents and desktop GIS analysis, we investigate whether distance, neighborhood, and socioeconomic status have a bearing on access and use of food pantries. Results indicate there is no pronounced relationship between recipience of government benefits and food pantry use, recipience of government benefits and neighborhood of residence, or household income and self-reported distance to a food pantry. Results may appear counterintuitive: Food pantry use has increased in the USA, but the profile of a pantry client is not axiomatic.

ABSTRACT Although rural households in Kenya rely on agricultural production for their livelihood, attaining food security is challenging in areas experiencing harsh agro-ecological conditions. We utilized mixed methods research to examine the effect of agricultural production, including that of traditional foods, on household food insecurity in Seme sub-County of Kenya. Study participants believed that traditional foods protected against hunger. However, production of these foods, with the exception of traditional vegetables, was low. Poultry-keeping; cereal/grain, any vegetable and traditional vegetable production; and crop diversity were significantly associated with lower household food insecurity. Vegetable production maintained statistical significance after controlling for other variables.

ABSTRACT Unpaid meals/meal shaming in schools are highlighted in the news media. The purpose of this study was to understand trends and themes in the media relative to meal shaming/unpaid meals. Two databases were used to identify print, cable, and public radio news stories that deal with meal shaming; 355 articles were used for the thematic analysis. Stories came from 46 different states; over half referenced state/local school district policies on meal shaming. The results indicate that meal shaming is a problem and is highlighted in the media. Many issues surrounding unpaid meals could be mitigated by universal no-cost meals.

ABSTRACT Food systems students can benefit from a critically reflective, anti-oppressive, and culturally responsive classroom. In this paper, we share 37 students’ reflections on their experiences in two such courses. Qualitative analysis was done in NVIVO to identify emergent themes. Students connected personal experiences of trauma, oppression, grief, as well as nourishment, resistance, and self – care to food systems case study themes. Students’ reflections demonstrated how anti-oppressive and culturally responsive practices created inclusive and safe spaces for students to grapple with complex issues and share vulnerable personal experiences that deepened their learning.

ABSTRACT As many as two-thirds of American community college students may experience food insecurity. Their struggles are linked to health and academic difficulties and relate to several socioeconomic factors, including stigma regarding food programs. To support students’ understanding of and activism regarding food insecurity, student leaders co-created the Playing with Our Food intervention, which reviewed research and played games with students about stigmatized food-related topics. A survey utilizing writing prompts revealed that attendees learned new information, were more likely to use campus programs, and became interested in activism. Other campuses may stage similar interventions to develop students’ awareness of food insecurity.
