Abstract

It seems tha when people have a meal, their wil gives priority to the traditiona food culture, which is likely to be declining. This is because now is the time when food is so abundant. Therfore, we wanted to know the statusquo in menus, Haizen and arrangement, ment, and examine meals in general. So we conducted a factfinding survey by taking pictures of dinne tables for three days. The research wa given to students of Fukuoka Jogakuin Junior College in Fukuoka area, students of Mukogawa Joshi Junior College in Hyogo area and their families 622. and 606
We analyzed the data and got the following results. 84.7% of the staple food for dinner is rice. The position of the rice bowl on the table is traditionally recognized to be in the front on the left, and 74.2% of the dinner tables have the right position. There are more main dishes and side dishes than we expected. The more main dishes and side dishes they have, the more diversity and disorder of the table setting they have. When they have soup in their menu, many of them put the rice bowl at the given position, which is in the front on the lefe, and the main dish in the back on the right, which is the given position.
