“…Research by Szałajko et al (2021) indicates that the disparities in food consumption between rural and urban areas are influenced by factors such as education and socioeconomic status. Diversity in food consumption is very important, which becomes a factor affecting overweight and stunting for children (Hatløy et al, 2000), lack of diversity in food consumption can promote health problems (Ding & Kinnucan, 2011).…”

Malaysia has 44% of the population who are rural communities with smallholder farmers. Langkawi is one of the districts in Kedah with the potential for glutinous rice production. However, food security still occurs in areas such as Langkawi because of the price and market accessibility. The objective of this research is to examine the financial status of households and their access to sufficient food by utilizing the food poverty line. Additionally, it seeks to explore the connection between different sources of household income (total household income, respondent's income, and wife's income) and the availability of food in local markets. Respondents were selected according to a list of names of smallholder farmers who participated in the glutinous rice planting program. There are 118 respondents from eight villages in Langkawi was all population (census). The finding shows that the household income has a significant relationship with household food security using Pearson correlations (Household income = 0.08, respondent's income = 0.00, wife's income = 0.03). The findings of this study can be applied as a first step to addressing poverty and food insecurity among Langkawi small farmers participating in the glutinous rice program. In addition, it helps identify important elements that affect food safety.

“…However, our study did not confirm an association between education and the intention to eat less meat. Previous studies conducted in Poland have also shown that there is no relationship between education and the consumption of red meat, poultry, and cold cuts [ 77 ], but also that the relationship varies between men and women [ 73 ]. Unlike eating less meat, a positive relationship was shown between education and intention to eat more plant-based foods.…”

The study aimed to identify predictors of the intention to eat less meat and more plant-based foods, including attitudes towards eating meat, habitual meat eating, subjective norms, and self-identity. A cross-sectional study using CAWI (Computer-Assisted Web Interview) was conducted in a group of 1003 Polish adults in 2023. To measure the predictor variables, the following tools were used: Beliefs and Eating Habits Questionnaire (KomPAN), Meat Attachment Questionnaire (MAQ), and scales to measure subjective norms and self-identity. Logistic regression analysis was used to verify associations between independent variables, and the intentions to eat more plant-based food and less meat next year were treated as dependent variables. More respondents were willing to increase their consumption of plant-based foods rather than reduce their meat consumption. The intention to consume less meat and more plant foods was more prevalent among women, older people (only intention to reduce meat consumption), and better-educated people (only intention to increase plant food consumption). Habitual frequency of eating plant foods, negative feelings about meat, and environmentally oriented identities had a stimulating effect on the intention to eat more plant foods and less meat, while experiencing pleasure in eating meat had a limiting effect on the intention to eat more plant foods and less meat. In addition, the habitual frequency of meat consumption and subjective norms reduced the likelihood of eating less meat, while no predictive effect was observed for the intention to eat more plant foods. In conclusion, educational and promotional activities to raise awareness of the link between food consumption and the environment can have a strong impact on eating less meat and more plant-based food, even among those strongly accustomed to meat consumption.

“…The study of the frequency of consumption of selected products carried out in 2019 in one region in Poland—the Subcarpathian voivodeship—also showed that poultry was consumed more often than red meat [ 47 ]. This could also be explained as a result of price increases for red meat and changes in eating habits.…”

“…The aforementioned study in the Subcarpathian voivodeship showed that the village inhabitants more often mainly consumed staple foods, such as cereals and potatoes. In the case of meat, there were significant differences for cold cuts, which were eaten more often in rural than in urban areas [ 47 ].…”

“…In Poland, these types of meat are among the more expensive. A certain correlation between the level of education and meat consumption was demonstrated in studies conducted in the Subcarpathian voivodeship, Poland [ 47 ]. Subjects with a lower level of education were more likely to consume processed meat, with the exception of cold cuts, than those with a higher level of education.…”

The aim of the study was to assess the quantity and frequency of meat consumption, especially of red and processed meat, in Poland. The amount of meat consumed was assessed using data from household budget surveys undertaken in 2000, 2010, and 2020. The frequency of consumption was assessed using Food Propensity Questionnaire data from 1831 adults in 2019–2020. Poles consumed 1.35 kg of unprocessed red meat and 1.96 kg of total processed meat per person per month in 2020. The consumption of red meat was lower than in the two previous decades; the consumption of processed meat fluctuated. Pork was the most commonly consumed red meat: 40% of adults consumed pork 2–3 times a week. Beef and other unprocessed red meat were most often consumed less than once a month (29.1%). Processed meat was often consumed: 37.8% of adults ate cold cuts, and 34.9% ate sausages and bacon 2–3 times a week. The consumption of red and processed meat in Poland was high and frequent. In particular, the consumption of processed meat exceeded the recommendations and might increase the risk of chronic diseases. It is necessary to implement activities aimed at reducing the consumption of red and processed meat in Poland.
