Studien skärskådar hur den kvinnliga foodieidentiteten ser ut och tillåts utformas. Genom att undersöka foodiekulturen utifrån ett genusperspektiv ämnar vi vinna djupare insikter i kvinnliga foodies konsumtionsmönster samt beröra huruvida dessa konsumerar på liknande sätt som den manliga motsvarigheten. Med stöd från tidigare forskning söker vi därigenom visa på implikationer för genus- och konsumThe study examines the construction of the female foodie and how female foodies are allowed to create their foodie identities.
