The Cretan diet – as well as the so-called « Mediterranean diet » in general – has long been promoted as a nutritional model healthier than the culinary habits of the North. Therefore, it is all the more striking to witness, over the last few decades, a dramatic increase of overweight and obesity especially in Greece and the neighbouring regions. We shall first have a glance at the history of nutrition, its « national » perception and reality in Greece and Romania. Subsequently we shall focus on some peculiarities of the fast-food market in Greece compared to other countries. A brief discussion of other socio-cultural factors and some statistical tables will round off the study. |
