Sisällön kuvaus

The data consists of diary texts of Finnish people in which they describe their food-related choices and experiences on Friday 21 April 2023. The food diaries provide information on what is part of Finnish food culture and culinary tradition in the 2020s. The food diaries included information on, for instance, what food they bought, made and ate on that day. The food diaries often reflected the current debate around food.

The writings included what the respondent or his or her family ate and drank at different meals on that day, at what time and with whom. Respondents described what ingredients and foods were purchased from the store and the reasons for their choices. Respondents also frequently reported which foods they avoided or preferred as part of their diet, and which foods they prepared themselves on the day of the study. Respondents were also able to point out if they encountered any discussion about food in the media or discussed it with someone during the day. In addition, the respondents described the perceptions, thoughts and feelings that food evoked on the day. In their writings, respondents discussed issues such as food price, quality, health, weight control, ethics of food production, availability of food ingredients, special diets and the importance of food. Finally, respondents often assessed the typicality of that day's meals compared to other days. Respondents were also asked to mention in their text if they took part in the 'What did I eat today?' call for entries in 2013. If they so wished, they could also reflect on whether anything had changed in their eating habits in the last ten years.

Background information included the respondent's gender, year of birth, occupation and place of residence. The data were organised into an easy to use HTML version at FSD.

Aineiston käytössä huomioitavaa

To prevent identification, the names of the authors and other direct identifiers have been removed from the writings at FSD. In addition, some name-like pseudonyms have been removed. The participants' dates of birth were replaced with years of birth and some occupations were changed to a more general level. Identifiers related to any third persons were removed from the data and the names that appeared in the texts were replaced with fictitious names if they occurred more than once. Changes made by the FSD are indicated by [square brackets].

The original dataset contained 428 writings. The data archived in the FSD does not include responses received in analogue form, texts of writers who did not give consent for archiving, or any separate images that may have been sent with the texts. The complete dataset is available from the archive of the Finnish Literature Society (SKS). Additionally, one text was removed from the data during archiving because it appeared twice in the dataset.

Viittausvaatimus

The data and its creators shall be cited in all publications and presentations for which the data have been used. The bibliographic citation may be in the form suggested by the archive or in the form required by the publication.
