Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Looking at eating and food choice is how we understand personality and culture in the United States. Here, we probe sociocultural, economic, and biological backgrounds that motivate eating and food choice through topics that are far-ranging, including marketing, product placement in retail outlets and line, transactions within families, ethnic foods, vegans, emotional eating, food deserts, and celebrations.

Contributions have to follow one of the three categories of papers (article, conceptual paper or review) of the journal and address the topic of the special issue.

Signature
