Abstract

This paper aims to analyze the composition of the Argentinean diet in the 21st century as a factor of social exclusion. It is a type of social inequality, nutritional inequality, which is determined both by food supply and by access to nutrients. Hunger will include both situations of deficiency (of nutrients) and excess (of kcal) that can be reconstructed from changes in the bodies of consumers. Industrialized foods produced in the agribusiness model are characterized by a flavor that becomes part of the foundation of nutritional inequality. Offer, accessibility and flavor are very important elements for the design of food solutions where diet is a factor of social inclusion.
