The South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) nations are a potpourri of diverse religions, races and cultures with rich natural and cultural heritage but yet to tap the full potential of tourism. An investigation into the glorifying heritage of these eight SAARC nations pinpoints towards their rich food and culinary heritage that is yet to be explored to carve them as food destinations that would definitely help ameliorating tourism too. The Global Report on Food Tourism of the United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) reveals results from a survey on food tourism marketing promotion, from which internet marketing tools, such as websites have been effectively utilized to promote food tourism in a particular destination. (UNWTO, 2012). Sensing the importance of the websites in the promotion of food tourism for any destination, the present study aims at the comparative content analysis of the official tourism websites of SAARC nations to evaluate their performance from the perspective of promotion of culinary heritage on world -wide web. The modified Balanced ScoreCard (BSC) approach is incorporated into the evaluation by taking into consideration four perspectives: technical, user friendliness and site attractiveness, tourism effectiveness and food tourism effectiveness. A set of 88 critical success factors representing these four perspectives is then used to examine the websites. The study reflects on the relative strength and weakness of the tourism websites of SAARC nations in promoting food tourism and as well help suggesting the remedial measures catalyzing the food tourism promotion through websites.

This study was conducted to examine the level of exposure, credibility and usefulness of the food tourism information channel perceived by foreign tourists visiting Korea. A total of 230 survey questionnaires were distributed to Japanese and Chinese tourists, who account for the highest percentage of tourists visiting Korea. The results showed that tourists were segmented into three groups based on their participation in food tourism activities: culinary tourists, experiential tourists and general tourists. Japanese tourists participated more actively in food tourism activities than Chinese tourists. The information channel used most frequently by tourists was 'word-of-mouth,' while the least used channel was 'e-mail catalog contains food tourism information.' Culinary tourist most actively used online and offline channels to search for food tourism information. Perceived credibility and usefulness of the food tourism information channel differed by nationality and food tourist segments.

The purpose of this study is to investigate consumer perception and importance of food tourism properties and performance of the properties in Sangju province of Gyeongsangbuk-do. The study has found that persons who have food tourism experiences (75 persons, 50.7%) had slightly more than not experience persons (72 persons, 48.6%). Additionally, most of the respondents were usually satisfied with the local foods. Also, it was found that food tourism had been taken 1-2 times per 6 months (48 persons, 64.0%) on average, and 135 persons (91.2%) had intention of experiencing food tourism. According to the result of Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA) on consumers' food tourism properties, high importance was on 'There are attractive landscapes.' ($4.52\;{\pm}\;0.56$), 'Accommodations with reasonable price.' ($4.18\;{\pm}\;0.80$), and 'The food of the area is famous.' ($4.15\;{\pm}\;0.73$); and the properties such as 'There are local specialty shops or markets selling local produce.' ($3.03\;{\pm}\;0.83$), 'The climate is temperate.' ($3.03\;{\pm}\;0.87$), and 'There are attractive landscapes.' ($3.02\;{\pm}\;0.98$) showed average performance. A factor analysis about consumers' importances to the food tourism properties shows that the factors were divided into four kinds and each of the factors were named as 'convenience-stable propensity', 'valued-oriented propensity', 'adventurous-aggressive propensity' and 'traditional-active propensity'. Variance ratios of each factor were 22.319%, 10.286%, 8.723% and 6.239%, respectively. According to the result of a reliability analysis, Cronbach's alpha value was 0.8621, implying that reliability of each item was very high. Therefore, it is considered that development of food tourism products and promotion strategies therefore should be designed based on the importance of food tourism properties hereafter.

The study reviewed 201 articles that include the words 'food' and 'tourism' in their abstracts in the KCI database. The Wordscloud analysis results presented that the research subjects were predominantly 'Festival', 'Region', 'Culture', 'Tourist', but there was a slight difference in frequency according to the time period. Based on the main path analysis, we extracted the meaningful paths between the cited references published domestically, resulting in a total of 12 networks from 2004 to 2018. The Text network analysis indicated that the words with high centrality showed similarities and differences in the food tourism literature according to the time period, displaying them in a sociogram, a visualization tool. This study has implications that it offers a new perspective of comprehending the overall flow of relevant research.

본 연구는 음식관광의 가능성을 파악하고, 음식과 관련된 참여활동이 방문의도에 어떤 영향을 미치는지 파악하여 음식관광객을 유인하기 위한 가이드라인을 제시하고자 한다. 설문지는 250부를 배포하여 248부를 분석에 활용하였다. 분석결과에 대한 내용은 다음과 같다; 첫째, 음식관광의 분석에서 음식관광을 경험한 사람은 43.5%, 18.5%는 경험은 없지만 관심이 있고, 그 형태는 유명한 맛 집 방문과 음식문화축제 참여로 나타났다. 아직, 음식관광 형태는 단순하지만 충분히 음식관광이 활성화될 가능성이 있는 것으로 의미된다. 둘째, 관광지에서 추구하는 음식성향은 현지주민이 추천하는 음식, 내 입맛에 맞는 음식, 지역특산품 및 향토음식, 재래시장 방문, 먹거리 축제/음식문화 체험의 순으로 나타났다. 셋째, 단양지역을 방문할 경우 응답자들은 송이 능이버섯 전골, 항아리 맥적구이, 소백산 산채비빔밥, 곤드레 마늘솥밥의 향토음식을 선택하려는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 음식관광의 참여활동에서 '음식문화 경험', '건강지향', '음식의 지식/정보추구'의 순으로 방문의도에 유의적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구의 목적은 푸드 투어리즘의 개념을 설명하는 요인들을 규명하고, 음식에 관련된 관광객들의 성향적 측면을 파악하여 이러한 성향과 푸드 투어리즘과의 관계를 실증적 연구를 통해 분석하고자 시행하게 되었다. 기존 문헌에 근거하여, 푸드 투어리즘을 구성하는 세 가지 측면이 도출되었다. 첫째는 방문 지역의 토속 음식을 메뉴로 하는 레스토랑을 선호하는 것이며, 둘째는 토속음식 상품을 구매하는 것이며, 마지막은 여행 지역에서 양질의 레스토랑을 선택한다는 것이다. 아울러, 음식에 관한 여행자의 성향으로 새로운 음식에 대한 두려움, 새로운 것을 추구하는 성향, 향락적 소비성향, 자아확신성 등의 변수가 도출되었다. 강화도, 남이섬, 영종도의 200명 여행객 설문지 중 164명의 성실한 답변이 분석에 이용되었다. 아울러 여행자의 성향과 푸드 투어리즘과 관계가 있는지를 다중회귀 분석을 이용하여 분석하였다. 연구결과로써, 음식에 대한 두려움은 푸드 투어리즘에 부정적인 영향을 주었으며, 새로운 것을 추구하는 성향, 향락적 소비성향, 자아확신성을 푸드 투어리즘에 긍정적인 영향을 주었다. 따라서 푸드 투어리즘 마켓의 발전을 위해서 여행자들에게 질적인 지역 토속 음식 문화를 경험할 수 있게 하는 다양한 활동, 레스토랑, 축제 등을 발전시켜 나가야 할 것이며 지역 특유의 음식과 관광을 함께 이미지화 할 수 있도록 해야 할 것이다.
