Food environments play a role in immigrants' dietary acculturation, but little is known about the directionality of the relationship. The objective was to explore the interaction between the food environment and food procurement behaviors in the process of dietary acculturation. A qualitative study design using in-depth interviews and a mapping exercise was conducted. The immigrant group studied used a variety of factors to select which foods to procure. Traditional foods were readily available, shifting the determining factors to a combination of affordability, acceptability and accessibility. The food environment is dynamic and responds to shifting market demands. Policies regarding food procurement behaviors should consider these upstream effects and be aware of the availability of traditional foods for immigrant groups.
食物环境在移民的饮食文化适应中起着一定的作用，但对于这种关系的方向性却知之甚少。本研究的目的是探讨在饮食文化适应过程中食物环境与食物采购行为之间的相互作用。本研究采用定性研究设计，运用深入访谈和绘图练习的方法进行。研究发现，所研究的移民群体使用多种因素来选择采购哪些食物。传统食物的广泛供应改变了决定因素，变成了可负担性、可接受性和可及性的结合。食物环境是动态的，会对不断变化的市场需求做出反应。关于食物采购行为的政策应该考虑到这些上游影响，并意识到传统食物对移民群体的可获得性。
