SUMMARY:

The change in eating habits in recent decades has impacted people's health and, as a result, Chronic Non-Communicable Conditions have increased every year in Brazil and around the world. Food choice is not a simple process and is the result of several factors, influenced by socioeconomic conditions, changes in families' daily routines, as well as interference from food industry marketing. Increased access to information available on communication networks has had an impact on food choices and consequently on health. Food and Nutritional Education is one of the guidelines of the National School Meals Program, being an important strategy for health promotion. Food and Nutritional Education is one of the guidelines of the National School Meals Program, being an important strategy for health promotion. Taking care of family nutrition requires an awareness that nutrition involves not only biochemical processes, but an entire social, political and economic involvement and food availability, based on the assumption that healthy and adequate nutrition is a right guaranteed by law and that not everyone has access to healthy and safe food from a nutritional and environmentally sustainable point of view. The present work aimed to understand the dietary profile of parents of students in the 5th year of elementary school I at School Sesi Dom Bosco in São João del-Rei/MG, as well as evaluate their knowledge about healthy eating, in addition to identifying which determinants of food choices made by these families. To collect data, a semi-structured questionnaire was applied and 45 parents and/or guardians of the students participated in this research, being a cross-sectional, quantitative study with descriptive quantitative analysis. It was found that the majority of families still maintain a traditional Brazilian diet, including rice and beans, milk, with consumption of one to two fruits per day, and reveals the presence of vegetables in the diet of 84% of these families. All participants describe natural or minimally processed foods as healthy and ultra-processed foods as unhealthy according to the new classification of the Food Guide for the Brazilian Population, but without mentioning issues such as food production methods, agroecological products, as well as affective and cultural values that involve the act of eating. We can conclude that the multidimensional view that involves the act of eating was not mentioned, presupposing a reductionist view of food. The data collected and analyzed serves as support to propose Food and Nutrition Education that goes beyond work at school, also involving parents who are responsible for forming their children's habits.
