Sažetak

Recognized as a staple food consumed in large quantities in the Balkans region, bread is suitable for
the investigation of dietary habits. This survey was conducted to gain insight into the dietary habits,
related to intake and knowledge about various bread types, of the young population (14 to 26 years of
age). The total number of surveyed respondents was 173 (37% males and 63% females). They were
randomly selected among students from an elementary school (30), high school (45) and university
(98) in the Novi Sad Municipality. A correlation between the respondents’ age and the practice of
“healthy food” intake was observed, as whole wheat bread consumption increased from 15% in elementary
school to 26% among high school and university students. Considering gender, whole wheat
bread intake among female respondents was 9% higher in comparison with male respondents. Still,
white bread was most commonly consumed by all respondents (56%-69%), as a result of a habit
adopted in the family. However, the obtained results indicate a strong correlation between agechanging
dietary habits (“healthy” food awareness) and the impact of the environment rather than the
impact of the family. Namely, the greater impact of family and tradition is noticed among elementary
school pupils (54%) while among high school and university students the corresponding impact was
significantly less pronounced (34%).
