To evaluate the school lunch program served by elementary schools in Muan, Korea, we examined children's preference for the dishes offered on the menus. School lunch program menus showing the food composition of 400 meals (100 meals in each season) were collected. The serving frequency of each dish on the menus was counted. Eighty-seven representative dishes were selected based on the serving frequency and preference for each dish was determined by a survey of 414 elementary school students who were served by the school lunch program. We also analyzed the nutrient contents of each representative dish. Among the prepared foods, children indicated the highest preference for desserts. Steamed rice was served more frequently as a main course than one dish meals, although children preferred one dish meals to steamed rice. Among side dishes, those that were deep-fried were the most preferred. Children indicated high preference for fruits, milk, and eggs, and low preference for fish and clams, vegetables, and beans. The serving frequency with which main courses, soups, and side dishes were served showed no correlation with children's preference for each. Preference for dishes correlated positively with nutrient contents of calories and lipids, but negatively with nutrient contents of fiber, calcium and vitamin A. According to these results we can suggest that dietitian should consider children's preference into greater consideration to increase menu acceptability and thereby reduce waste. Children need to be educated about the roles and contents of nutrients in food and the fact that preference for foods affects nutrient intake.

Objectives: This study aimed to confirm the relationship between toothbrushing practice after lunch and typical oral health behaviors in children and adolescents according to the subject and type of social support. Methods: The study used data from the 2010 Korean Survey on the Health of Youth and Children and selected 8,704 elementary, middle, and high school students as final targets. Multiple logistic regression was conducted to confirm the link between social support and toothbrushing after lunch. Results: The results showed that in elementary and vocational high school students, statistical significance of all social support variables disappeared after controlling for both demographic and social factors and oral symptom experience. However, in the middle school students, the emotional support of the neighbors and the emotional support of the teachers showed statistically significant effect on brushing daily after lunch (p<0.05). In general high school students, there was a significant association between family emotional support and toothbrushing after lunch (p<0.01). Conclusions: The oral health promotion program for children and adolescents needs to be integrated and coordinated with the overall health promotion program. In particular, it is believed that the school-based program can strengthen the practice of health behaviors by inducing behavioral changes based on the formation of healthy relationships and trust of colleagues and teachers. Therefore, it is necessary to develop social network-based programs including social support such as emotional health and healthy relationships that can be applied among children for oral health promotion.

This study evaluated the quality of meals served by the elementary schools in Muan based on nutrient contents and food diversity. The contents, nutrient densities and nutrient adequacy ratios(NAR) of most nutrients were higher than those calculated from the Korean RDA. However, the content, nutrient density, and NAR of iron were lower than those calculated from the RDA for 10 to 12 year old girls. The content of sodium was somewhat high. The average number of different kinds of food and dishes per meal were 19.2 and 6.0, respectively. The more the number of dishes, the higher the NARs of calcium, calories, niacin, phosphorus and protein. However, the NAR of iron showed no correlation with the number of dishes. The meals belonging to the food group intake pattern containing fruits had more vitamin C and fiber, and less protein, lipid, and phosphorus than those belonging to the food group intake pattern not containing fruits. In conclusion, the quality of nutrition of meals served by school lunch program(SLP) was considered fairly good. However, the nutritionists should consider the iron for 10 to 12 year old girls and cut down the amount of sodium. In addition, unless the children prefer the foods served by SLP or adjust to the general aspects of SLP, SLP can't accomplish its purposes. Therefore, we suggest that nutritionists should survey children's food preference and satisfaction with the general aspects of SLP.

Conventional foodservice system has been the most prevalent system across the country. However, all the elementary students throughout the country is not being provided with school lunch program because of the restriction on equipping school foodservice facilities. So commissary foodservice system was introduced to school lunch program in 1991. This study was designed to evaluate condition of existing major equipment including volume, probable useful life, and frequency of use and determine equipment improvements on conventional and commissary school foodservice systems. A questionnaire was developed and mailed to 87 dietians of conventional and 46 dietians of commissary school foodservices in Kyunggi-do. Response rates were 89.1% and 91.3%, respectively . Approximately one third of commissary foodservices were converted from conventional to commissary. Only 52.6% of conventional and 53.5% of commissary foodservice facilities/equipments have been desirable in quality and quantity. Capacity, functional ability, using frequency, and relationship with efficient work management were analyzed according to school foodservice system. Content analysis was conducted regarding to dietitians' opinions on foodservice facilities/equipment.

Information regarding the status of lunch box service for children and juveniles from nutritionally vulnerable families is limited and has not been assessed from the view of beneficiaries. Therefore, this study intended to determine the satisfaction, current status, menu preferences, and dietary habits of recipients served lunch-box meals from Pocheon city. There were 41 subjects from primary schools and 73 from secondary schools. Although 94.8% answered that the foods were generally helpful, as much as 28.9% replied that the amount of food provided was too little. Only 77.2% answered that they eat the foods always or usually, 29.5% answered that they throw away leftover foods, and only 71.9% recycled empty containers, suggesting the need for instruction regarding how to deal with leftover foods and containers. Food preferences were high for deep-fried foods and meats and low for fish and vegetables, and that for vegetable egg rolls was relatively high, suggesting the need to increase vegetable intake. Adherences to guidelines regarding street foods was the lowest in both elementary and secondary school students, suggesting that the contents of nutrition education for these students should include materials to improve dietary habits, along with increasing the consumption of milk.

본 연구는 초등학교 아동의 식습관, 간식습관 및 섭식실태를 급식교와 비급식교에 따라 비교 분석함으로서 치아우식증 발생과의 관련성을 규명하고, 조사대상 아동들에게 영양교육 프로그램을 실시한 후 교육효과를 평가하고자 실시되었다. 1. 급식여부에 따른 식습관 조사 결과, 급식교 아동이 비급식교의 아동보다 아침식사의 규칙성, 식사속도, 식사량의 적당성 및 식사시간의 규칙성에 있어 바람직한 편이었고, 고기나 생선, 해조류, 우유나 유제품의 섭취정도도 약간 높게 나타나 급식을 통하여 올바른 식생활 태도가 형성되는 것으로 보여졌으며 전반적으로 영양교육 후 식습관에 있어 긍정적인 변화를 나타내 영양교육의 효과가 있었음을 알 수 있었다. 2. 카라멜, 초콜렛 및 사탕류, 비스켓류 등의 치아우식유발 지수가 높은 우식성 식품을 간식으로 자주 섭취하고 있었고 충치유발 요인 인지 시 간식을 덜 사먹겠다는 아동이 급식교에서 다소 많았으며, 물리적 청정작용을 하는 껌을 간식으로 씹는 경우는 1주일에 2∼3회가 가장 높게 나타났다. 또한 영양교육 후 치아우식에 영향을 줄 수 있는 시간인 저녁 식사 후에 간식을 먹는 아동과 TV 광고로 인해 간식을 선택하는 아동의 비율이 낮아졌으며, 세정식품인 채소와 과일, 단백질, 해조류, 우유 또는 유제품의 섭취는 교육 후 약간 증가하였다. 3. 치아우식과 관련이 있는 당질군을 제외한 모든 식품군에서 비급식교 아동보다 급식교 아동의 섭취횟수가 높게 나타났으며 1인 1일 우식성 식품의 평균 섭취 횟수는 평균 5.04회였고, 고체식품보다는 액체식품으로 섭취하는 횟수가 다소 높았다. 치아표면에서 청청작용을 하여 치면세균막의 형성을 감소시켜 우식증을 예방하는 세정식품의 평균 섭취 횟수는 1인 1일 기준식품 표준섭취 횟수보다 높은 9.33회로 나타났다. 1인 1일 우식발생 가능 시간은 100.9분이었는데, 액체 식품의 우식발생 가능 시간은 56.2분으로 44.6분인 고체 식품에서 보다 높게 나타났다. 이상의 결과에서 식습관이 치아우식발생과 밀접한 관계를 가지고 있으므로 초등학교 아동에 있어 치아우식을 유발할 수 있는 간식의 섭취를 줄이되 우식성 식품을 간식으로 섭취한 후에는 잇솔질을 반드시 실시하도록 하며 정규식사에서 치아를 보호하는 세정식품의 섭취에 대한 영양교육이 지속적이고 단계적으로 꾸준히 이루어져야 한다고 본다.
