Abstract:

Brazil is characterized by strong social inequalities and differences in access to quality food and sufficient quantities of it, which represent a violation of the human right to adequate food. The aim was to assess food expenditures according to the social profiles of the head of the households. Data from the cross-sectional Brazilian Household Budget Survey (2017/2018) were used with a nationally representative sample of household survey participants (n= 52,917). Poisson regression was used to estimate prevalence ratios (PR) to assess the association of different social profiles with the acquisition of food. The profile characterized by woman self-classified as white, with a higher education, which characteristics were positively and significantly associated with more acquisition of fruits (PR=1.22; CI 95% 1.09-1.36) and vegetables and greens (PR=1.24; CI 95% 1.09-1.41). Black women with low education levels showed a negative association with the consumption of soda (PR=0.53; CI 95% 0.45-0.62), and prepared food (PR=0.52; CI 95% 0.37-0.74). The results reveal great inequalities in the purchase of food between the social profiles of the heads of the family.
