Resumo: Consumption of food away from home is a trend in different regions of the world, with indications that this practice may pose a health risk. It is recognized that eating behaviors and food choices are complex and conditioned to several factors. The environmental factor has been receiving increasing attention among the variables that involve food choices. In this context, this article discusses the possibility of pay-per-kilo restaurants, a typical Brazilian service, being a healthy alternative when eating out. Scientific facts related to pay-per-kilo restaurants are scarce, making it unfeasible to perform a systematic assessment of the subject. Hence, this review discusses restaurant modalities and some studies that compare the possibility of healthy choices in restaurants with different distribution modalities. Given its characteristics, which include diversity, reasonable prices, speed and convenience, pay-per-weight restaurants can encourage healthy food choices away from home. Also, there is emphasis on the importance of nutrition interventions that make healthy foods available and educate the population to make healthier food choices.

É reconhecido que os comportamentos e as escolhas alimentares dos indivíduos são complexos e estão condicionados a diversos fatores. O fator ambiental vem recebendo crescente atenção dentre as variáveis que envolvem as escolhas alimentares. Nesse contexto, este artigo discute a possibilidade de os restaurantes por peso, modalidade de serviço muito utilizada na realidade brasileira, representarem uma alternativa saudável de alimentação fora de casa. Os dados científicos disponíveis relativos aos restaurantes por peso ainda são escassos, não permitindo uma avaliação sistematizada sobre o tema. Assim, com base em pesquisa bibliográfica, discutem-se os modelos praticados e alguns estudos que comparam a possibilidade de escolhas saudáveis em restaurantes com diferentes modalidades de distribuição. Sugere-se que, devido às suas características - que incluem a diversidade, a possibilidade da prática de preços acessíveis, a rapidez e a conveniência -, os restaurantes por peso possam estimular a escolha de alimentos saudáveis nas refeições realizadas fora de casa. Ressalta-se, também, a importância de intervenções nutricionais tanto na disponibilização dos alimentos quanto na orientação à população para escolhas saudáveis nesse contexto.Núcleo de Editoração – PUC-Campinas2023-09-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/article/view/9822Brazilian Journal of Nutrition; Vol. 24 No. 4 (2011): Revista de NutriçãoRevista de Nutrição; Vol. 24 Núm. 4 (2011): Revista de NutriçãoRevista de Nutrição; v. 24 n. 4 (2011): Revista de Nutrição1678-9865reponame:Revista de Nutriçãoinstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPporhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/article/view/9822/7161Copyright (c) 2023 Melina Valério dos SANTOS, Rossana Pacheco da Costa PROENÇA, Giovanna Medeiros Rataichesck FIATES, Maria Cristina Marino CALVOhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSANTOS, Melina Valério dos PROENÇA, Rossana Pacheco da CostaFIATES, Giovanna Medeiros RataichesckCALVO, Maria Cristina Marino 2023-12-05T17:19:26Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/9822Revistahttp://www.scielo.br/rnPRIhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/oai||sbi.submissionrn@puc-campinas.edu.br1678-98651415-5273opendoar:2023-12-05T17:19:26Revista de Nutrição - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false
