The purpose of this study was to identify the change attributes of food courts inside department stores or shopping centers, which are becoming more sophisticated and gentrified. A survey was conducted regarding customer satisfaction level of food services, which influences customers’ revisit behavioral intentions, to provide future development direction. Using an exploratory factor analysis, 55 questions on food and beverage service, atmosphere, comfort, sanitation, and food quality were produced. This study tested how these choice factors affect customers’ positive or negative impressions of their dining experiences through multiple regression analysis. Results indicate that ‘food service’ was the most important factor contributing to customers’ positive impressions along with higher revisit behavioral intentions. On the contrary, respondents who received poor ‘food service’ had higher negative impressions with low revisit intentions. The results and findings of this study will positively influence marketing and customer relationship management and thus help design of successful strategies for food court development.

This study investigated the correlation between consumer’s buying habits and food styling visual elements. Differentiated and original techniques were used to determine whether or not visual elements in tteok menus reflect the aesthetic needs of consumers without altering the nutrition of tteok. The targeted tteok cafes were in Jeonju Hanok Village, which is a tourist attraction in Korea. First, sub-factors of food styling visual elements applied to tteok café menus such as shape, size/volume, color, and texture all had significantly positive effects on customer satisfaction, proving that food styling visual effects applied to tteok café menus have significant effects on customer satisfaction. Second, sub-factors of food styling visual elements applied to tteok café menus all had significantly positive effects on buying habits. Third, customer satisfaction of menus had a significant effect on buying habits, as proven by previous studies. Fourth, the effects of customer satisfaction on the relationship between food styling visual factors applied to tteok café menus and buying habits were investigated.

This research study aimed to examine the seriousness related to sodium over intakes that is becoming a global issue, evaluate how the recognition of sodium-reduced products and its acceptance can influence the intention of purchasing sodium-reduced products, and generate basic data for establishment of marketing strategy of campaigns such as reducing sodium intake and commercialization of sodium-reduced products. According to the results of the research, the acceptance of sodium-reduced products significantly influenced the purchasing intention of sodium-reduced products, while the attitude towards sodium and recognition of sodium did not significantly influence the purchasing intention of sodium-reduced products. Extension of these research findings to ordinary people and the analysis of main causes that affect the recognition of sodium-reduced products and purchasing intention provide a solid basis for efficient sodium-reduction publicity and development of directions for campaigns.

The aim of this study was to investigate food culture represented by the grain yard, water well, kitchen, and meat storage space which were depicted in the mural painting of An-Ak tomb No. 3. The mural paintings of An-Ak tomb No. 3 were compared with those of ancient Chinese tombs before the 4th century in order to understand their characteristics. Above all, the tomb murals describe the form and function of the stove (buttumak) as well as the cuisine using the cauldron (sot) and steamer (siru) in a very interesting manner. The meat storage space of An-Ak tomb No. 3 shows whole carcasses of animals such as roe deer, dog, and pig. However, Chinese murals show that while small animals such as soft-shelled turtle, fish, chicken, duck, pheasant, rabbit, etc. were stored as whole carcasses without being cut into pieces, large animals such as cows and pigs were slaughtered and each piece of their carcasses such as the head, thigh, meat loaf, and cardiopulmonary part was separately depicted. These tomb murals vividly describe the food culture of Koguryo and China before the 4th century.

To develop an elderly diet food that can easily be chewed and swallowed, we manufactured elderly diet food using chicken breast meat with various amounts (0.9, 1.1, 1.3 and 1.5 g) of gelatin used as a viscosity agent, and evaluated their physico-chemical and sensory properties. As the amount of gelatin decreased, the lightness were increased, but the redness and yellowness were decreased. In the texture profile analysis, hardness, springiness, gumminess and chewiness were significantly increased with increased amounts of gelatin, but adhesiveness gradually decreased. Cohesiveness was no significantly difference. Free amino acid contents in elderly diet food using chicken breast meat did not show trend to increase or decrease, but the tyrosine contents were significantly decreased with increased amounts of gelatin. The sensory evaluations including taste, flavor and color were not significantly different. However, the texture and overall acceptance of elderly diet food using chicken meat containing 1.3 g of gelatin had the highest acceptance.

To investigate the preference of food of the elderly for developing processed elderly food, this study was conducted from February 2014 to March 2014 by questionnaire including dietary behaviors, food preference, and frequency of food intake to 119 elderly (49 males and 70 female) who were more than 65 years old and living in Jeonju. Most subjects ate three meals regularly and most of the subjects’ favorite meal time was lunch. The duration time of one meal was 20 min (48.74%). The most preferred taste was delicate and sweet. The subject preferred cooked rice with multi-grains, kalguksu (hot noodle), and abalone porridge to other staple foods. Almost 50% of the subjects liked soybean paste soup and stew, and the ratio of elderly who liked Chinese cabbage kimchi was 72.3%. Preference for panfried foods leaned toward pan fried fish fillet and mung bean pancake. Most subjects preferred plant foods like vegetables, lettuce, and seaweeds. The elderly in Jeonju liked roasted pork, grilled yellow croaker, and stir-fried octopus. Cooked and seasoned vegetables (namul) were the most preferred type by the elderly. Preferences for dishes and food materials were not affected by sex and ages. Most subjects preferred eating out with Korean food. Preference for eating food was selected in grilled beef ribs, a pork cutlet, sushi·broiled eels, and Chinese noodles. Western Japanese and Chinese food were preferred by an elderly subject, who was male and who liked Japanese food more than female.

The purpose of this study was to examine the difference in nutritional knowledge and food preferences according to foodrelated lifestyle among 400 married women. Using the K-average clustering method, food-related lifestyles of subjects were categorized into three clusters: rational and diversity-oriented group, convenience-oriented group, and health-oriented group. The nutritional knowledge level and food preferences among three clusters were compared to each other using ANOVA test. The findings were summarized as follows: For the nutritional knowledge level, health-oriented group showed the highest mean score, whereas the lowest score was detected in the convenience-oriented group. The convenienceoriented group showed higher preferences for fish, meat, eggs, fruits, milk/dairy products, seaweed, grains, etc. among natural food than the other groups. Meanwhile, the rational and diversity-oriented group preferred legumes, and green vegetables, whereas the health-oriented group showed preferences for other vegetables. However, the convenience-oriented group reported more preferences for breads, noodles, pancakes, fried/stir-fried food, and processed food such as sausage, ham, and fast food, This study found that nutritional knowledge level and food preferences were significantly different according to food-related lifestyles of married women living in Seoul and Gyonggie areas. Thus, it is suggested that nutritional education targeting married women needs to be carefully designed by considering their food-related lifestyle.

This research intended to conduct literary research on ‘Jeok’ of 25 jong-ga through Jong-ga Ancestral Ritual Formalities and Food, published by the Cultural Heritage National Research Institute of Cultural Heritage during 2003~2008, and compared and analyzed an arranging method and recipe transmission process by directly visiting four Jong-ga. Religious ceremony foods of Jong-ga could be divided according to the standard of the hakpa attribute (large), regional attribute (midium), and family attribute (small), which forms a complex connection structure between the attributes. ‘Jeok’ arranging form is divided into ‘3-Jeok building method (vertical structure)’, ‘3-Jeok arrangement method (horizontal structure)’, ‘3- Jeok replacement method’, ‘2-Jeok arrangement method’, ‘Jeon-Jeok arrangement method’, and ‘Others-Jeok arrangement method’. Generally, ‘jeok’ arrangement order per hakpa is in the order of ‘meat jeok - chicken jeok - fish jeok’ in case of Gihohakpa, whereas Yeongnamhakpa is in the order of ‘fish jeok - meat jeok - chicken jeok’. Umoringye (羽毛 鱗介), the method of laying ‘dojeok’ of the Gyeongbuk region, could be found in the 2nd century B.C. Chinese ancient book Hoenamja and the theoretical background was Yin and yang philosophy (陰陽論). This research has significance in terms of securing advanced results compared to advanced research that has so far concentrated on some regions and hakpas.

본 연구는 학교급식위생에 중요한 역할을 하는 조리종사자의 위생관리수행도에 도움이 될 수 있는 기초위생자료 제공을 위해 급식소의 일반사항, 위생교육에 대한 조리종사자의 태도, 그리고 위생관리수행수준의 관계를 규명하였다. 경남지역에 소재하고 있는 초ㆍ중ㆍ고등학교급식소 23곳의 조리종사자 185명을 대상으로 데이터를 수집하고 분석한 결과, 급식운영형태에서는 직영보다 위탁이 위생관리 수행수준이 더 높게 나타났으며, 하루제공 끼니수 에서는 1식이 2식, 3식을 하는 집단보다 위생관리 수행수준이 더 높은 것을 알 수 있었다. 조리종사자의 위생교육 태도에 따른 위생관리 수행수준 차이를 살펴본 결과,위생교육에 대한 태도가 좋을수록 위생관리 수행도가 높아짐을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구의 결과로부터 급식소의 일반사항과 학교 조리종사자의 위생교육에 대한 태도는 위생관리 수행수준을 결정하는 중요한 요인임이 밝혀졌다.

본 연구는 식품위생교육을 이수하는 국내 떡류 영업자를 대상으로 설문조사를 통하여 우리나라 떡류 영업의 특성을 파악하고 온라인 및 오프라인 식품위생교육에 대한 인식도의 차이를 비교 분석하고자 하였다. 떡류 영업자 연령대는 50대(40.1%), 학력은 고졸(52.6%), 종사기간은 10년~20년(34.3%)이 가장 높은 것으로 나타났고, 영업 및 영업장 관련 종사인원은 2명(79.5%), 면적은 99.17 m² 이하(92.0%), 점유 형태로 임차 사업장(60.2%), 사업장에 대한월 임차 금액 100만 원 이하(54.8%)를 대부분 지불하고있으며, 영업장 안전사고 발생은 3년간 228건(연평균 2.4%),제조·가공 품목수는 20가지 이하(86.7%)로 분석되었다. 식품위생교육 채널별 인식도에서 영업자는 여성, 연령대가 낮을수록, 학력이 높을수록 온라인 교육을 선호하였고, 온라인 교육 선택 이유로 ‘시간적ㆍ경제적ㆍ편리성’(73.7%)가 나타났으며 온라인 이수자는 위생교육이 영업에 더 도움 된다고 인식하였다. 매출액은 온ㆍ오프라인 이수자 간의 유의적 차이가 없었고 위생적 관리에 대해서는 온라인이수자가 오프라인 이수자보다 7.4% 높게 잘 하고 있다고 답변하였다. 이전의 교육기관의 교육 대비 떡류 영업자만을 위한 교육은 온·오프라인 이수자 모두 60.7% 정도 더 만족하는 것으로 분석되었다.

한국과 중국 간에 FTA가 발효됨에 따라 양국 간의 교역량이 증대될 것임은 자명한 사실 이다. 특히 국민의 건강 및 안전과 밀접한 관련이 있는 농산물 등 식품안전분야의 교역은 양 국 간에 엄격한 검사·검역 체계를 수립하고 양국의 정책 및 제도의 조화를 도모함으로써 신 뢰를 정착시키고 FTA의 긍정적인 효과를 향유하는 것이 무엇보다 중요하다. 본 연구의 목적은 한국과 중국의 식품안전규제제도에서 양국 간의 식품안전정책의 차이점 과 유사점을 분석하여 상호 윈윈(win-win)할 수 있는 식품안전정책을 도출하고 제도의 조화 를 모색하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 제2장에서는 WTO 및 FTA체제하에서 식품안전과 관련된 국제적인 규범을 고찰하고, 제3장에서는 한국과 중국의 식품안전정책을 상호 비교 분석한다. 제4장에서는 양국이 경험한 식품안전과 관련한 사례를 분석하여 향후 시사점을 도출하고자 한다. 마지막으로 결론에서는 FTA발효에 따른 양국 간의 식품안전 및 정책의 조화가능성을 제시하고자 한다.

본 연구는 서울지역에 위치한 대학생들을 대상으로 식품기업의 위기상황에서 기업의 사회적 책임활동에 대한 소비자의 인지가 기업이미지 및 재구매 의도에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여 수행되었다. 식품기업 N사를 분석사례로 선정하고 실제사건을 인용한 설문지를 사용하여 대학생 235명을 대상으로 기업의 사회적 책임활동을 인지하기 전과 후의 기업이미지와 재구매 의도에 대한 변화를 측정하고 통계분석을 실시하였다. 사회적 책임활동에 대해 인지하기 전과 후의 기업이미지를 측정한 8문항과 재구매 의도를 측정한 5문항에 대한 대응표본 T검증을 실시한 결과, 기업이미지에 관한 8문항 모두 유의수준이 0.05보다 작게 나타나 통계적으로 유의함을 확인하였다. 이로써 기업의 사회적 책임활동에 대한 소비자의 인지가 식품기업의 위기상황에서 기업이미지를 긍정적으로 변화시킬수 있다는 결론을 채택하였다. 같은 방법으로 재구매 의도에 관한 변화를 측정하고 분석한 결과, 제품의 만족과관련된 문항을 제외하고는 모두 유의수준이 0.05보다 작게 나타나 통계적으로 유의함을 확인하였다. 따라서, 본 연구는 향후 식품안전사고의 발생, 즉 식품기업의 위기상황에서 소비자들에게 기업이 실시하고 있는 사회적 책임활동을 인지시키는 것이 기업이미지와 재구매 의도를 긍정적으로 변화시키는데 기여할 수 있다는 주장의 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이며, 앞으로도 기업의 사회적 책임활동이 기업의 위기상황에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지에 대한 다양한 측면에서의 연구가 필요하다고 사료된다.

The purpose of this study is to find food safety approach in the Eco-label Chain of Custody(CoC) which is only focused to traceability. Because, consumers want to be assured the certified seafood comes from sustainable fishery as well as hygienic. In order to this approach, we used Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP) method as belows. We first understood the CoC criteria for using pair-wise comparison and analyzed and selected each Eco-label certifications and standards. Second, we carried out a survey to the targeted standard Marine Stewardship Council(MSC) CoC auditors all over the world and analyzed the priorities of food safety approach to 4 principles and 12 criteria belong the MSC CoC Standard. As the results, we found out that‘Management System’has the highest priority in the principles and ‘.Documentation’and‘Keeping Record’are the most important criteria for this approach. In addition, ‘.Training’and‘Identification’are also higher priority of criteria. So, we suggested food safety approach method for improvement of these criteria in conclusion based on discussion with specialist in this field.

Recently, food delivery apps are seeing rapid growth into a market worth 1 trillion won under a simple but unique business model of connecting nearby restaurants with consumers via smartphone. Though basic similarities with social commerce exists in aspects such as mail-order sales intermediaries, startups, types of services and market competition structure, food delivery apps resemble social commerce in many ways in that they use excessive marketing to secure market dominance, causing a spike in consumer complaints. If the excessive marketing and increase in customer complaints are not rectified, the food delivery app could also see rapid decline as it gradually grows distant from consumers, just like social commerce. Accordingly, this study will identify the factors consumers recognize as important for continuous use vis-a-vis social commerce and food delivery apps to perform an empirical analysis on what areas need improvement. After deriving the four upper factors of product, information system and service along with eight sub-factors by referring to existing literature, the areas with opportunity for improvement were derived through satisfaction level and relative importance evaluation. The results of this study present a strategic direction for maintaining customers of social commerce and food delivery apps.
