Abstract
This study examined the habits and attitudes of a group of people aged 65 and over, in relation to their dietary beliefs and habits when compared with younger individuals. It was found that these older people had similar attitudes to food as those under 65, and these were in line with dietary advice given by health promotion experts. However they had not changed their habits to the same extent, nor did they intend to do so. Reasons for these findings are discussed.
