Eating practices, Family meal, Food destructuration, Sociology of foodAbstract
The objective of this article is to contribute to the debate regarding the destructuring of eating practice in contemporary societies. The data used is taken from a nationwide survey on Spanish eating habits (ENHALI, 2012). The study examines the hypothesis of the destructuring of eating habits by analysing three concrete areas. The first of these is the destructuring of timetables. Secondly, the article examines whether there exists a process of defamilisation of eating habits. The third section discusses whether eating practice can be said to be anomic. After this study it can be affirmed that the synchrony of time, the importance given to sociability and adherence to the food standard present a more homogeneous than unstructured image of the eating habits of Spanish society.
