The impact of confinement on our food practices
The LOTERR, geography laboratory of the University of Lorraine, has developed a survey on the impact of confinement on our food practices. "Are we changing our eating habits, in particular by rediscovering food shops near our homes? Or are we instead favoring our usual shops, even more distant ones, because they are controlled and reassuring? Do we seek to limit our exposure to the virus by choosing particular points of sale, such as drives, or by reducing our frequentation? Or, guided by the need to break the isolation, do we assiduously frequent the shops where we have our habits and social relationships?"
