• Religions:• Jewish – do not eat pork • Muslim – only eat hallal meat• Hindu – do not eat beef • Buddhists – are vegan
• Moral standards:• Vegetarian or vegan • High fibre• Eat a healthy, balanced diet • Low fat• Organic • Fair trade• Red tractor endorsed • Only eat British grown
• Traditions – meals or ingredients for special occasions that have become part of our culture.
Social Needs• Special diets:
• Low fat - medics recommend that as a society we reduce the amount of fat eaten in our diet to
reduce heart disease• Low sugar - type 2 diabetics or slimmers need to
reduce the amount of sugar in their diets
• High Sugar - type 1 diabetics need to increase the amounts of sugar eaten
• High starch carbohydrate - sporty people or athletes need to increase the amount of starch carbohydrate eaten
• Celiac - allergic to gluten in foods• Lactose intolerant - allergic to dairy products• High Fibre - medics recommend that as a society we
increase the amount of fibre we eat in our diet to
reduce bowel cancer
Social Needs
• High iron - due to busy lifestyles many modern day people are anemic and need to increase iron intake. Especially those recovering from illness• Allergies - many people are born with allergies
to certain food stuffs – common allergies are to nuts, eggs etc..• Children - children’s bodies are still growing and
developing rapidly. They need a high intake of protein and vitamins and minerals
• Elderly - the elderly need a high intake of proteinand vitamins and minerals to ward offdiseases.
Cultural or Spiritual Needs
• Spiritual Needs:
• Religions:
• Jewish – do not eat pork
• Muslim – only eat hallal meat
• Hindu – do not eat beef
• Buddhists – are vegan
• Cultural Needs:
• Traditions – meals or ingredients for special occasions that have become part of our culture.
• Ingredients in dishes that come from or originate from specific countries in the world
• Cooking methods that come from or originate from specific countries in the world
Moral or Ethical Needs• Moral standards:
• Vegetarian or vegan - do not believe in causing harm to the animal. Vegetarians avoid meat and fish.Vegans avoid eating animal products
• Eat a healthy, balanced diet - follow the principles of the eat welldiagram
• Organic - ingredients are grown without the useof pesticides or chemicals. They are produced naturally
• Fair trade - for ingredients that are produced abroad,farmers are paid a fair wage for their cropsas if they were produced in Britain – this helps to reduce poverty
Moral or Ethical Needs
• Only eat British grown - food items have been farmed in Britain
therefore reducing the amount of food miles used and the carbon footprint
• Red tractor endorsed - food items have been farmed in Britain to
assured safety standards
• Ecotarian - only eat foods with the least amount of
food miles and carbon footprint, recyclable
an sustainable produce
Moral or Ethical Needs
• Free range - eggs or chickens have had a free space
in which to live rather than battery farming
• Non irradiated - the food has not been treated with
radiation
• Poverty - 70% of 3rd world countries farmed
produce is exported to different countries
this sustains their economy but keeps them in poverty – we should be eating seasonal produce from our own areas.
