This book questions the simplistic view that convenience food is
unhealthy and environmentally unsustainable. By exploring how
various types of convenience food have become embedded in
consumers' lives, it considers what lessons can be learnt from the
commercial success of convenience food for those who seek to
promote healthier and more sustainable diets. The project draws on
original findings from comparative research in the UK, Denmark,
Germany and Sweden (funded through the ERA-Net Sustainable Food
programme). Reframing Convenience Food avoids moral judgments about
convenience food, and instead provides a refreshingly novel
perspective guided by an understanding of everyday consumer
practice. It will appeal to those with an interest in the sociology
and politics behind health, consumerism, sustainability and
society.
