Attitude to the traditional fermented food and consumption behavior of traditional fermented food were emerged as independent factor, respectively. Second, food choice motives had the significant effect on the attitude to the traditional fermented food(p<.05). Among them, price had the strongest effect(${\beta}$=.235), followed by healing(${\beta}$=.190), health(${\beta}$=.175), and convenience(${\beta}$=.126). Third, the consumption behavior of traditional fermented food was strongly influenced by the attitude to the traditional fermented food(${\beta}$=.549). Finally, weight control was the only direct driver for traditional fermented food consumption.
