Examination of fish consumption habits among students of a secondary school in Szeged and of a university faculty

Abstract

Due to our environment or to our own decision, we try to pay attention to healthy nutrition (Szakály et al, 2014). We pay attention to the composition of the products and try to exclude certain foods (Kontor et al, 2016). Experts state that fish consumption is one of the indispensable conditions of a healthy diet, so we should consume fish at least once per week (Szakály, 2011). Figure 1 shows as well that despite the fact that fish is delicious and healthy, it is not part of our everyday diet (Kiss, 2017).The focus of my research was to survey the habits of fish consumption among the students of a secondary school and of a university faculty in Szeged. My goal was to uncover the causes behind the low rate of fish consumption. Furthermore, I aimed to investigate that, beside fish, which types of meats are the most commonly consumed among the interviewed. A study of last year shows the connections between nutrition attitudes and meat consumption, from which it turns out that several factors influence our meals (Nábrádi et al, 2017). During my research it was revealed that the price of fish plays a decisive role in consumption.
