Criteria to choose what to have at lunch

In 2016, Portuguese employees chose what they were going to have at lunch mainly according to the price (53%) and to the balance of the dish (52%). What they want at the present time matters much less (36%), which is a main difference with the other FOOD programme countries.

Portuguese employees give a real importance to the balance of the dish when selecting what they will have at lunch. This share has slightly decreased since 2015 but remains very significant and above the European average.
