A recent official report on the Scottish Diet reviews evidence for poor health and poor diets among the Scots, and makes extensive and specific recommendations about dietary change. This paper examines the extent to which reported consumption of fifteen of the food groups discussed in that report vary among four neighbourhoods in Glasgow City. Some foods appear to be typical of a wider Glaswegian (or Scottish) diet and show little variation among neighbourhoods (e.g. semi-skimmed milk, white fish, confectionery, cakes and pastries, savoury snacks). Other foods however show marked differences between neighbourhoods after controlling for sex, age and social class; these include fruit, vegetables, meat (particularly processed meat products), bread, spreading fats, sugar, natural fruit juice and alcohol. This suggests that such intraurban variations in food consumption cannot be explained simply by socio-demographic or socio-economic factors in individuals and that cultural and supply factors also need to be taken into account.
一份近期关于苏格兰饮食的官方报告审视了苏格兰人健康状况不佳和饮食不良的证据，并就饮食变化提出了广泛而具体的建议。本文考察了该报告中所讨论的15种食物组的报告消费量在格拉斯哥市四个社区之间的差异程度。一些食物似乎是更广泛的格拉斯哥（或苏格兰）饮食的典型代表，在各社区之间差异不大（如半脱脂牛奶、白鱼、糖果、蛋糕和糕点、咸味小吃）。然而，在控制了性别、年龄和社会阶层之后，其他食物在各社区之间显示出显著差异；这些食物包括水果、蔬菜、肉类（特别是加工肉类产品）、面包、涂抹脂肪、糖、天然果汁和酒精。这表明，城市内部食物消费的这种差异不能简单地用个体的社会人口统计学或社会经济因素来解释，文化和供应因素也需要考虑在内。
