Summary : In 1995 in Bamako (Mali), a two-stage research project was carried out in order to study street food consumption practices and motivations to eat street foods among individuals from households in three socio-economic levels (rich, intermediary, poor). Almost all individuals, regardless age and sex, consumed street food on a daily basis. Variety of foods and dishes was greater among individuals from rich households than among those from poor or intermediary ones. Among the poor, purchases were mainly fruits and fried foods. Daily expenditures on street foods per individual were respectively twice and three times greater in intermediary and rich households than in poor ones: 36.5 FCFA, 65.7, 92.9 FCFA. Many motivations are expressed to explain the street food purchases: constraints linked to job activity, gustative satisfaction, individual food supplementation linked to home food insufficiency in a context of economic crisis. |
