During analysis, the food and the individual were considered first; then it became apparent that the eating situation should be examined. The analysis had begun to develop further when a paper for the 1987 meeting on food acceptability was published, stating that"field studies have led us to conclude that important factors controlling consumption of food in natural eating situations are the situational variables which make it more or less convenient for us to eat and which signal meal times" (Meiselman et al., 1988, p.
