Abstract
In order to obtain the information on the meal behaviors and the status of using university cafeteria, the survey was conducted through the questionaries to 2,425 students (Male : 48.8%, Female : 51.2%) of 9 universities throughout Korea. While most of the male students were having breakfast regularly (M : 70.7%, F : 52.7%), the female students enjoyed snacks for lunch (M : 21.8%, F : 55.0%) or between meals (M : 42.0%, F : 81.0%). Most of the subjects thought that skipping breakfast had bad influence on health. The male students had their lunch at the cafeteria more frequently than the female students. And the students in the universities without off campus dining facilities used cafeteria often. The students in the university-managed cafeteria also used the facilities more often than the rental situation. Other lunch habits in the case of not eating at the cafeteria were ‘bring lunch’ and ‘eat off-campus’. The main reasons for not eating at the cafeteria were ‘too crowded’(28.3%) and ‘waiting in long time'(28.0%). Only 4.9% of the students were satisfied with the menu, but the nearly half (42.3%) showed unsatisfaction largely because of the limited choice of menu Students pointed out the taste and the nutritional quality of the menu should be improved firstly. Another strong complaint was waiting in line.
