Resumo: | ObjectiveTo characterize the school cafeterias in the Federal District of Brazil with respect to the promotion of healthy eating in schools. MethodsThis is a descriptive, analytical, cross-sectional study, with a representative sample of schools with cafeterias in the Federal District, Brazil (n=202). The data were collected from April to November 2010 by means of on-site interviews and a structured questionnaire. The Pearson’s chi-squared and Student’s t tests were used. ResultsA higher prevalence of outsourcing, and few employees and dieticians were observed. The prevailing foods were baked sausage, cheese, or chicken rolls or pastries. It was also found that 42.2% of the schools influence the menu of the cafeterias, and 58.6% of the representatives believe in the possibility of influencing the students’ eating habits. However, 68.0% of the respondents do not believe in the economic feasibility of completely healthful school cafeterias. Approximately 30.0% of the respondents carry out activities to promote healthy eating. ConclusionMost of the school cafeterias in the Federal District do not encourage healthful eating. The high prevalence of outsourced services with little interference from the school community gives high autonomy to the cafeteria’s owner, whose priority is the pursuit of profit at the expense of the students’ nutritional education. Improving the nutritional quality of school foods should be a continuous interactive effort of the food suppliers, principals, students, parents, and government authorities. |

MétodosEstudo descritivo, analítico, transversal, com amostra representativa de escolas com cantinas do Distrito Federal (n=202). Nesse distrito, localiza-se Brasília, a capital do País. Coletaram-se os dados de abril a novembro de 2010, por meio de entrevista in loco com questionário estruturado. Utilizaram-se os testes Qui-quadrado de Person e t de student para comparar os resultados das cantinas de escolas públicas e privadas, considerando o resultado significante quando p<0,05. ResultadosVerificou-se maior prevalência de gestão terceirizada, poucos funcionários e nutricionistas, além de maior oferta de salgados assados com embutidos, queijo ou frango. Observou-se que 42,2% das escolas interferem na oferta das cantinas, e 58,6% dos representantes acreditam na possibilidade de influenciar os hábitos alimentares dos alunos. Entretanto, 68,0% não acreditam na viabilidade econômica de cantinas totalmente saudáveis. Cerca de um terço desses representantes realizam atividades de promoção da alimentação saudável. ConclusãoA maioria das cantinas escolares do Distrito Federal não é espaço facilitador da alimentação saudável. A alta prevalência de gestão terceirizada, com pouca interferência da comunidade escolar, dá ao proprietário da cantina grande autonomia e possibilita a priorização da busca pelo lucro em detrimento da educação alimentar dos escolares. Melhorar a qualidade nutricional da alimentação escolar deve ser um esforço contínuo de interação entre fornecedores, diretores, alunos, pais e governantes.Núcleo de Editoração – PUC-Campinas2023-03-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/article/view/8189Brazilian Journal of Nutrition; Vol. 28 No. 1 (2015): Revista de NutriçãoRevista de Nutrição; Vol. 28 Núm. 1 (2015): Revista de NutriçãoRevista de Nutrição; v. 28 n. 1 (2015): Revista de Nutrição1678-9865reponame:Revista de Nutriçãoinstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPenghttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/article/view/8189/5712Copyright (c) 2023 Erika Blamires Santos PORTO, Bethsáida Abreu Soares SCHMITZ, Elisabetta RECINE, Maria de Lourdes Carlos Ferreirinha RODRIGUEShttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBlamires Santos PORTO, Erika Soares SCHMITZ, Bethsáida Abreu RECINE, Elisabetta Carlos Ferreirinha RODRIGUES, Maria de Lourdes 2023-03-31T12:28:50Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/8189Revistahttp://www.scielo.br/rnPRIhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/oai||sbi.submissionrn@puc-campinas.edu.br1678-98651415-5273opendoar:2023-03-31T12:28:50Revista de Nutrição - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false |
