| description | Knowledge about the current consumption patterns of young consumers play an important role in a food chain aimed to improve and maintain healthy lifestyles. In this context, CAP has a vital role to assure a sustainable environment to sustain such practices. Few studies attempted so far to discuss aspects of healthy consumption related to CAP, thus, the current research intends to assess young generations’ habits regarding healthy consumption. Data collected through a questionnaire from 150 students enrolled at UASVM Cluj-Napoca, Romania were analysed using descriptive statistics and chi-square test to test gender differences. Findings indicate that most students adopt mixed diet containing both animal and vegetable products, vegetarian diet being more preferred by female students (p<0.05). No statistically significant differences were found among gender groups with respect to the perception on having a healthy diet (p>0.05), the perception being relatively low (33.33%). Lack of time, high prices and taste of fast-food were reported as motives for adopting a less healthy food diet. Investigating the consumption habits among young people is the starting point for developing public policies that promote sustainable consumption patterns. Future CAP reform should take more into considerations nutrition and health issues. |
