Abstract
Reports an analysis of class preferences for certain foodstuffs in the
UK. Multivariate analysis of the UK Family Expenditure Survey is used to
show that distinct factors operate in choice of food purchase dependent
on a person′s social class. Relying on Bourdieu′s Distinction thesis as
the theoretical basis, a scale of tastes for certain foods is arrived at
using discriminant analysis. This builds on work already reported in the
BFJ.
