This book analyses how consumer food choices have undergone profound changes in the context of the economic crisis, including the rediscovery of local products and the diffusion of multi-ethnic food. Corvo argues that a new ecological relationship between food and the environment is needed to reduce food problems such as food waste and obesity.

Paolo Corvo is Director of the Sociology Laboratory at the University of Gastronomic Sciences, Italy. His research interests include food and consumption, sustainable and enogastronomic tourism, local territorial development, quality of life and happiness.
