  • A significant number of cases of illness has been attributed to food consumption in restaurants, and as the number of meals eaten away from home continues to rise, the potential for large-scale, foodborne illness outbreaks will continue to increase. It is critical that hospitality and culinary arts students preparing for careers as professionals in foodservice establishments or restaurants have an appropriate understanding of food safety. The level of food safety knowledge was similar between hospitality and culinary arts students, and an analysis of 266 questionnaires indicated that specific areas, such as hand washing, cross contamination in refrigerator, reheating leftovers, refrigeration of cooked food within two hours, proper temperature of food storage, using of thermometers to monitor temperatures, proper egg handling, and possible food borne illness caused by fruits, should be the primary focus of educational resources. Student respondents showed a higher awareness level of responsibility in their roles for food safety, but more emphasis needs to be given to the correct understanding of food safety issues. Hospitality and culinary arts educators can use this precise information to develop food safety education materials and programs to assist in the prevention of foodborne illness and to knowledgeably educate their graduates about food safety.

  • The last half of the twentieth century brought many new opportunities and challenges to the traditional South Korean family. One area of change that challenges the traditional South Korean family is the availability of new food sources, specifically the introduction of commercial restaurants that offer new types of food in untraditional settings. This research investigated the perceptions of South Korean mothers'(n = 104) regarding the patronage of quick service style restaurants by their children through the use of Q sort methodology. The results showed that even though children do influence the decision making process when determining where to eat away from home, Korean mothers still play a very prominent role in planning the family's food consumption. While Western food styles and practices can provide a variety of food selections and service styles, care should be taken not to over utilize the quick service restaurants' in place of traditional foods.

  • Restaurants implement menu labeling to provide nutritional information to customers in an attempt to help customers select healthy menu items. Considering the increase in food-away-from-home consumption, the purpose of this study was to identify motivators and barriers in restaurant customers regarding use of menu labeling. Data were collected from a survey on restaurant customers in Seoul, Korea. The findings of this study indicate that customers used menu labeling for health reasons. However, barriers to using menu labeling were identified as small font size, difficulty in locating nutritional information display, and difficulty in interpreting nutritional information. In addition, they also suggested expanding the scope of menu labeling for restaurants by including chain restaurants with less than 100 units. The findings of this study offer strategies for the government to improve menu labeling practices for customers.

  • 미국의 외식산업은 계속 증가하는 추세로 2005년의 레스토랑 매출은 U.S. GDP의 4%인 4,760억 달러에 달할 것으로 예측되며 약 4.9%의 성장이 기대되고 있다. 약900,000 레스토랑에서 식사와 간식을 제공하며 또한 레스토랑에서 근무하는 종업원의 숫자도 약 1억 2천만 명에 이르러서 민간부문에서 가장 큰 규모를 나타내고 있다. 미국 내 외식 산업의 환경은 사회변화와 함께 빠른 속도로 변화하고 있다. 베이비 붐 세대가 장년기에 들어서면서 노인 인구가 급증하고 있으며, 비만과 성인병의 증가로 인해 레스토랑 메뉴의 영양표시에 대한 요구도가 커지고 있다. 또한 외식이 비만에 미치는 영향에 대한 사회적인 문제가 관심의 초점이 되면서 레스토랑에서 건강 메뉴 개발이 요구되고 있다. 이와 함께 건강지향 고객의 증가로 인해 보다 건강한 외식에 대한 필요성도 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 따라서 이러한 환경변화에 대응하기 위한 레스토랑의 노력이 어느 때 보다도 필요한 시점이다. 외식산업 시장에서 민족음식(ethnic food)은 중요한 위치를 차지하게 되었으며 고객의 보다 다양한 문화적 욕구를 충족시키기 위한 마케팅이 요구되고 있다. 미국 내 외식 시장에서 한식의 위치는 한식의 영양적 우수함에도 불구하고 낮은 인지도와 전략적 마케팅의 부재로 인해 아직 미약한 실정으로 보인다. 미국 시장 개척을 위해서는 미국의 현재 외식 산업의 추이를 파악하고 그 안에서 한식의 위치를 재정립하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 미국 외식 산업의 현재 추이와 영양과 건강문제가 외식 산업에 미치는 영향에 대해 조사하고 한식의 대미 진출을 위한 기초 자료를 제공 하고자 한다.

  • Korean households' demand for food consumed away from home is on the steady increase. The ratio of eating-out expenditure of the household income, however, tends to decrease recently irrespective of income groups. This paper, therefore, aims to analyse the food-away-from-home expenditures of salary and wage earners' households by income decile group. The eating-out expenditure is modelled as a function of household income and then estimated using econometric methods such as regression, rolling regression, impulse response, and variance decomposition of forecast error. The regression results indicate that the higher the income decile group is, the lower the income elasticity of eating-out expenditure is, and the high income groups enjoy seasonal eating-out, the low groups do not. The coefficients of dynamic rolling regression are much smaller than those of static one, meaning that households tend to decrease the eating-out expenditure of their income. The impulse response analysis suggests that the eating-out expenditure increase of higher income groups lasts long relative to that of lower income groups. The variance decomposition, also, shows that household income plays much more important role in determining eating-out expenditure at the higher income groups than at the lower income groups.

  • The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of household income drops on household economic status during economic crisis periods. Using the data taken from Korean Household Panel Study for 1996 and 1998, it was investigated how household income change affected household income, expenditure, and assets/debt. The economic status change of the income-decreased group was compared with that of the income-increased group. The major findings were as follows: Average income of the total sample was 1,905 thousand won in 1996, while 1,419 thousand won in 1998. The household of which income was decreased during the period was 65.1% of total sample. Average income of the group was reduced from 2,263 thousand won to 1,239 thousand won. Among income sources, the amount of income from real asset was found to be the highest decreasing rate, and the amounts of both business and employed-work income were reduced almost up to an half of those in two years ago. The amounts for all expenditure categories were also decreased with decreasing household income. Especially the expenditures for food away from home, leisure, durable, recreation, and vehicle-related expense were found to have the highest income elasticity. The households with decreased income were found to reduce household expenditures by 377 thousand won per month, which was 70.9% of that in 1996. Decreases in household income resulted in decreases in net wealth by 10,170 thousand won. With decreases in household income, the amounts of total insurance and private savings such as gye were decreased, and so were the amounts of real assets and monetary assets.
