Children and Taste: Guiding Foodservice
- 2012
-
In: Journal of Foodservice Business Research. - : Informa UK Limited. - 1537-8020 .- 1537-8039. ; 15:1, s. 84-100
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Taste has been neglected in science, and school foodservice suffers from huge amounts of food waste when children do not eat what is served. This article highlights the importance of taste in terms of children's food preferences, and the awareness of this fact has been recognized while working with children as co-researchers. The children formulated research questions themselves, chose research methods, gathered information, and analyzed and presented results. In this way, taste developed as the most important aspect of food for them. It is suggested to not just let them be a panel, but also to let children participate from the very beginning in planning school foodservice.

Ambiguous Substances. Framing risk and pregnancy at the Facebook site of the Swedish National Food Agency
- 2012
-
In: Making Sense of Consumption, 2nd Nordic Conference on Consumer Research, May 30 - June 1, 2012 Gothenburg, Sweden.
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This paper explores the contested landscape of risks associated with food consumption and pregnancy. It renounces the conventional interpretation of risk communication in terms of regulation and governance. By instead starting from theories of anxiety as social practice (Jackson and Everts 2010); the paper discusses how anxieties are framed, handled and institutionalized, and the way risk communicators and pregnant women frame these risks and handling strategies in conversations at the Facebook site of the Swedish National Food Agency (NFA). The paper presents an overview of themes and ways of communicating and highlights the new and disputed field of herbal teas.

Assembling nostalgia: devices for affective captation on the re:heritage market
- 2017
-
In: International Journal of Heritage Studies. - : Informa UK Limited. - 1352-7258 .- 1470-3610. ; 23:6, s. 556-574
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This article builds on the current rethinking of nostalgia in heritage studies and an increasing amount of research that explores the formatting of customer – producer relationships in terms of ’market attachments’ to analyse how nostalgia is performative on the market for retro, vintage and second hand, what we call the re:heritage market. Based on a multi-sited study including offline and online ethnographic observations, photography and qualitative interviews with shop owners and staff at a selection of central streets in Gothenburg, Sweden, the article explores the way shop owners work with nostalgia in order to attract, or ‘captate’, the public, through engaging affective market devices. Our particular contribution is to show how the re:heritage market contribute to our understanding of an alternative of cultural heritage, through configuring exchange and value, and details how ‘affective captation’ adds conceptual strength for understanding the emotive and sensate pull of certain market-based heritage practices. Staging nostalgic encounters involves practices of selecting, collecting, displaying and preserving for the future: practices that are vital for all heritage-making. A variety of actors are involved in this unconventional of heritage at safe a distance from traditional heritage practices.

Barn som medforskare av matlandskap. Del 1: Medforskning
- 2010
-
Reports (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Att ta med barn i forskningsprocessen är undantag snarare än regel i barndomsforskning. Det är även mycket ovanligt när det gäller forskning inom fältet mat och hälsa som domineras av kvantitativa studier. De flesta av dessa studier har folkhälsovetenskapliga eller kostvetenskapliga utgångspunkter där man försöker följa, mäta effekterna av och utvärdera olika interventioner riktade mot barn. Forskarna i BAMM ville inte forska om barn utan med dem. Deras utgångspunkt var barnen och deras intressefokus och frågeställningar. Vad är intressant för dem? Vad har de för kunskaper och vad är de nyfikna på att få veta mer om? Hur tar de reda på mer om det de är intresserade av? Hur sammanställer och presenterar de sin forskning? Hur föreslår och visualiserar de förändringar? Kan barns forskning göra skillnad? För dem? För samhället? Detta metodiska angreppssätt innebar också med nödvändighet en kritik av gängse uppifrån-och-ner-modeller för interventioner riktade mot barn. Fältarbetet bedrevs i två fjärdeklasser med totalt 45 barn på en skola i en av Göteborgs kranskommuner. Medforskarna arbetade i grupper på 7-8, med en eller två av forskarna som handledare. Forskarnas ambition som handledare var att uppmärksamma medforskarnas intressen och önskemål och låta dem leda forskarna runt i sina matlandskap. Det var inte bestämt i detalj hur medforskandet skulle gå till utan forskningssamarbetet fick växa fram tillsammans med barnen. Genom BAMM fick forskarna uppslag för hur barns matmiljöer kan bli mer hälsofrämjande. Det behövs insatser på såväl individ, som skol- och kommunnivå. Utgångspunkten är att barn ska bemötas som individer med resurser att tillföra i ett hälsofrämjande arbete. Det innebär att ta vara på barns erfarenheter och kunskaper och att ge dem möjligheter, både i och utanför skolan, att ta reda på mer om det de är intresserade av. Det är också viktigt att ta matglädje och sinnlighet på allvar och inte minst att ge barn reell möjlighet att vara delaktiga i beslut som fattas rörande deras matlandskap.

Biking consumers: bags, bikes and sustainability
- 2013
-
In: International Society for Ethnology and Folklore, SIEF, Conference, Tartu 30 June – 4 July 2013.
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Things are not always consumed at the same place where they were obtained and this generates a mobility of moving things that the consumer is responsible for, i.e. a mundane consumer logistic conducted by customers while moving things from stores to places where the things are used. Means of transport and carrying for "getting this work done", for example bicycles, are not essentially enabling or disabling: for the strong, healthy and able-bodied, cycling equals healthy pleasure and leisure but the slightly "over-carrying" person moving recent purchases might perceive the physical environment more in terms of risk than aesthetic pleasure. The aim of the paper is to discuss discrepancies between cycling as a represented sustainable form of urban transportation as promoted in policy programs in Sweden and cyclists' experiences of bringing goods back from the store. Over the last ten or more years bicycling has reached a top place on both the academic and policy agenda in search for ways to increase use of bicycles as they are seen as healthy and sustainable means of urban transportation. When doing everyday consumer errands like grocery shopping, any aesthetic pleasure, effects on health or the environment derived from cycling must be related to experiences of discomfort, physical effort and safety measures. In this paper we confront sustainability transport policy directed towards urban dwellers with an ethnographic analysis of biking consumers. We combine data obtained through in-depth interviews and "go-along observations" with families with small children and elderly people.

-
In: Food words. Essays in culinary culture. - London : Bloomsbury. - 9780857851956 ; , s. 32-35
-
Book chapter (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Food Words is a series of provocative essays on some of the most important keywords in the emergent field of food studies, focusing on current controversies and on-going debates. Words like 'choice' and 'convenience' are often used as explanatory terms in understanding consumer behavior but are clearly ideological in the way they reflect particular positions and serve specific interests, while words like 'taste' and 'value' are no less complex and contested. Inspired by Raymond Williams, Food Words traces the multiple meanings of each of our keywords, tracking nuances in different (academic, commercial and policy) contexts. Mapping the dynamic meanings of each term, the book moves forward from critical assessment to active intervention - an attitude that is reflected in the lively, sometimes combative, style of the essays. Each essay is research-based and fully referenced but accessible to the general reader.

Convenient Food for Baby: A Study of Weaning as a Social Practice
- 2017
-
In: Food, Culture and Society. An international Journal of Multidisciplinary Research. - : Informa UK Limited. - 1552-8014 .- 1751-7443. ; 20:4, s. 569-586
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This article reports findings from a study of weaning from a perspective informed by practice theory. The overall aim is to examine how parents integrate convenience baby food into their everyday feeding practices. The focus is the embedding of convenience baby foods in the routines and rhythms of everyday life and the “do-ability” of different practices. The study is based on fieldwork with nineteen mothers in Falköping in western Sweden. Results show that local do-abilities emerge out of situated combinations of materials, competences, and meanings. Convenience proves to be an emergent category rather than a property of particular kinds of food.

In: Children's Geographies. - : Informa UK Limited. - 1473-3285 .- 1473-3277. ; 11:1, s. 74-88
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In this article, we discuss children’s becoming as food consumers in the intersection of various foodscapes. We draw from a project, Children as co-researchers of foodscapes, where we have been working with children as co-researchers, using basically ethnographic methods, and as co-designers in a collaborative design effort. This article focuses on the findings from a theoretically inspired perspective, using the concept of foodscapes. These are food-related structures of different kinds, which evolve as the child explores them and where children as food consumers are generated. In this article, we highlight the scapes of taste, routines, people, things, commerce, child (as opposed to adult) and health and give brief accounts of the way the children related to them. Finally, we turn to the benefits of working with foodscapes for a better understanding of children’s becoming as food consumers in the intersection of various foodscapes. This article is based on data gathered by the children, but also on our fieldwork notes and observations following the children in their foodscapes.

Foodscapes and Children’s Bodies
- 2010
-
In: Cultural Unbound. Journal of Current Cultural Research. - 2000-1525. ; 2:Article 42, s. 797-818
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This article addresses children, food and body, and introduces a Deleuzian and Childhood Studies-inspired use of the concept of foodscape. The data draws on a transdisciplinary project on children as co-researchers of foodscapes. In this arti-cle we do not discuss the method or the children’s research results, which we have done elsewhere. Instead, our aim is to present a theoretically inspired analysis of our own fieldwork observations during this project in order to discuss the per-formance of children’s bodies, food and eating. Departing from the concept of foodscape, we present an analysis of some food events that illustrate the complex-ity of children’s foodscapes concerning the interaction between spaces, bodies, foodstuffs, values and rules. In encountering food and eating at various places, different child becomings emerge. We distinguish three powerful performances of what Stuart Aitken (2008) calls “I-dos”: First, the seemingly obedient pupil, who pretends to do what he or she is told, but who more or less imperceptibly escapes from adult supervi-sion. Second, the child who makes use of the stereotyped and possibly cute “food monster” designation, and turns it into a threatening subject, who disturbs the or-der and challenges adults’ power. Third, the knowledgeable scientist who, with the help of a research project, adult experts, nutritional calculation programs and ingredients, seizes the definition of the body as a site for growing stronger, health-ier and more capable. The foodscapes we met held many “striated spaces” (Deleuze & Guattari 1987), where the children had few alternatives to adhering to the adults’ designated “I-ams”. But we also entered smooth spots where children had the opportunity to experiment with “I-dos” that would not have occurred to us had we not followed them, and there are certainly many more that appear in the children’s everyday encounters with food.

From home to shop: Logistic Equipment of the elderly in an urban environment
- 2013
-
In: 11th European Sociological Association Conference, ESA, 28-31 August, 2013,Turin, Italy..
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This paper introduces a neglected type of everyday mobility; what we call consumer logistics; the movement of purchases by the consumer from store to home. It presents an ethnographic study focusing how consumer logistics is affected by life phase, specified as “what role does container technologies play in doing-being old”. When getting older, physical strength eventually declines. Spine and joints object and you cannot go on carrying as much as you used to. Balance, sight and hearing are impaired. Performing routine activities of food supply in the urban city-center gradually becomes more difficult. In fact, consumption activities, which are often daily, confront seniors with a double challenge: on the one hand, the management of the body, the containers (bags, shopping carts) and the goods and on the other hand the management of this assembly and the technical mobility devices (public transportation, walkways, sites’ accessibility).All of the seniors taking part in this study used various innovative tricks to compensate for the body's increasing weaknesses. A shoulder bag or a backpack was not only a practical carrier tool, but also a necessary relief for shoulders and arms that are no longer able to carry as much as before. The wheeler (caddie) was not just a practical relief for the body but could also act as a support for those who easily get dizzy and need to pause and have something to lean on for a while. More over walking in the street keeps you in touch with a broader network of relationships.

-
Book chapter (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Kapitlet handlar om olika idéer om barn och barndom som leksaker i McDonald's Happy Meal förmedlat genom sin design och de olika sätt barnen kan hantera dem på. Från att på 1970-talet ha stått för "amerikanska" hedonistiska värden och vilja efter "mer", har leksakerna alltmer försvenskats och värden som lärande, säkerhet och hälsa alltmer betonats eller "skrivits in i" utformningen. Artikeln är skriven inom Helenes delprojekt om barn och föräldrar på McDonald's i projektet Kommersiella kulturer.

Ju mer vi är tillsammans - fyrtiotalisterna och maten
- 2010
-
Book (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Mappies, Silvverrävar, det grå guldet, jätteproppen Orvar... Det här är en bok om den stora generationsgruppen fyrtiotalisterna och deras matvanor. Mat betyder alltmer när vi blir äldre, matlagning och måltider är dagens fasta hållpunkter och upptar mer tid av vår vardag än då vi arbetar. Mat är också den del av det svenska hushållets konsumtion som kräver mest energi och belastar miljön mest. Även äldre måste därför äta mer resurssnålt och miljövänligt. God mat och god service, hälsa kvalitet, fritt val, vänner, hållbarhet. En ekvation som inte alltid går ihop. Hur vill generationen egentligen ha det med maten och livet i framtiden? Boken bygger på material som insamlats i samband med projektet ”Den mångdimensionella matkonsumenten” , vid Centrum för komsumtionsvetenskap i Göteborg. Här ges en mer fördjupad och helhetlig bild av några grupper 40-talister och om maten i deras liv. Här överbyggs avståndet mellan mediernas oövervinnerliga äventyrare och vård- och omsorgsforskningen bräckliga, sjuka, utsatta människor i behov av vård, omsorg och beskydd. Boken tar oss med på en matresa från 50-talets Sverige fram till idag. Här växer en bild av generationens matminnen, matens sociala betydelse, hälsa och miljötänkande fram. Berättelserna varvas med tidstypiska recept.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- I en tid med överflöd av prylar och dignande sopberg har återvinning blivit trendigt. Det begagnade har blivit högsta mode. I många stadskärnor växer hela stråk dominerade av butiker för retro, vintage, shabby chick, upcycling och remake fram tillsammans med traditionella loppisar och välgörenhetsbutiker. Hur denna omvandling, som beskrivit i många studier såväl internationellt (Crew, Gregson & Brooks 2003; Duffy, Hewer & Wilson 2010; Baker 2012; Fisher, 2015; Handberg 2015) som nationellt (Fredriksson 2012; Appelgren & Bohlin 2015; Brembeck & Sörum 2017) sker i Göteborg är fokus för projektet Re:heritage vid Göteborgs universitet (Appelgren & Bohlin 2015), varifrån materialet till denna artikel är hämtat. Syftet är att visa det omfattande och handfasta arbetet med att omvandla gammalt ”sunk ”till trendiga och eftertraktade varor på denna nya marknad för retro och vintage. Det handlar långt ifrån bara om nya perspektiv på det gamla och slitna utan innefattar också ett avsevärt fysiskt slitgöra i form av att tvätta, ta bort lukt och fläckar och skapa en fräsch och överskådlig butik, liksom det väsentliga men osynliga arbetet med att hålla varorna i ständig rörelse.
