Adults' health and life expectancy largely depend on the food they consume and the eating habits they adopt from childhood.Cardiovascular diseases and cancer are among the leading causes of death in East Central Europe and are closely linked to nutrition, among other factors.The region is home to a very high proportion of obese and overweight people and people with body image disorders, not only among adults but also among children.While the above highlights that nutritional habits in the second half of the 20th century were largely inadequate, surveys of children today indicate that the region, including Poland, has not yet managed to eliminate problems related to nutritional health.This may also suggest why gastronomy is currently attracting so much attention.Everyday eating habits are extremely important, not only in the daily lives of individuals but also in wider communities
