Popis: | Traditional diets reflect different cultures and geographical locations, and may provide healthy diet options. In Chile, it is unknown whether traditional culinary preparations are still remembered, let alone consumed. Therefore, we adapted methods to identify traditional culinary preparations for healthy and sustainable dietary interventions. In Chile&rsquo s Metropolitan Region and the Region of La Araucaní a, we collected data on the variety of traditional diets through cultural domain analyses: direct participant observation (n = 5) free listing in community workshops (n = 10) and pile sort activities within semi-structured individual interviews (n = 40). Each method was stratified by age (25&ndash 45 year, 46&ndash 65 year and &ge 65 year) and ethnic group (first nations or not). About 600 preparations and single-ingredient foods were identified that differed both in frequency and variety by region. The foods most consumed and liked (n = 24&ndash 27) were ranked in terms of sustainability for public nutrition purposes. Methods originally designed to collect information about plants of indigenous peoples can be extended to collect data on the variety of existing traditional culinary preparations, globally. Context, both geographical and cultural, matters for understanding food variety, and its subsequent use in the design of healthy and sustainable diet interventions. |
