Abstract:

Food preference surveys conducted at three CONUS Air Force bases show that average preferences for enlisted personnel do not differ markedly from one base to another. There were very few differences among bases when considering individual foods, and no differences at all when using food classes for comparison. These data strongly suggest that one Air Force menu can satisfy food preferences of Air Force personnel at a variety of installations representing different missions, climates, and locations.
