Abstract
Gastronomy in present times presents consumers with many choices. For young people, students in schools, that diversity of foods, cooking styles and means of access presents dilemmas. Where should they draw guidance from family, from peers, from the school, or from the media? Many of their choices are culturally embedded, as for religious abstentions, or vegetarians who may wish to avoid dairy as well as meat. New Zealand governments (and others, i.e. Canada) have expressed concern at what they consider excessive indulgence 1. They take measures of obesity as indicators of health risks. This paper examines how those concerns are being addressed, and their likely success
