Summary

In   this research, 296 university students who do    not receive specialized education on    food were targeted. A questionnaire on    childhood dietary experience and current diet was conducted in   order to   clarify the current situation of   dietary habits of   university students and the relationship between the childhood dietary experience and current dietary habits,. For the current meal-intake situation, not only breakfast but also dinner was absent. However, many students attempted to   eat well-balanced meals. Students living alone tended to   eat lunch and late night snacks. The state of   intake during childhood influenced their current meal-intake situation especially on    lunch and late night snacks. The subjects who had food education as   children felt that the education was useful. These results suggest that in   order to   optimize the dietary habits of   university students, not only a review current of dietary habits, but also habits and education as children were deemed imprtant.
