The purpose of this research was to examine the eating habits and food security of Mexican rural residents. Examining food consumption and food security in the current Mexican sample communities is the primary focus. One of the village communities, Tlapanala residents spent an average of $767 per month on food, which is lower than the CONEVAL-recommended minimum. The current study aimed to study the income generation of the communities, money allocation to food habits, nutritional status and food insecurity of the village communities.
In this field survey was conducted during 2014-2015. A total of 141 residents from the Puebla towns of San Salvadorel Verde, Tlapanala and Coatzingo participated in the poll. The stratified random sampling method was used to find samples. We used an ANOVA model and descriptive statistics to examine the data.
As a result, $882 was the bare minimum needed to achieve the common good (September 2014). There are three types of poverty based on respondents’ income: food poverty, skills poverty and wealth poverty. If you make above $1,700 per month, you may leave poverty. San Salvador el Verdeans reported a malnutrition-causing 1,848 kcal.
