We observed that we have many restaurants and shops in this area.
Regarding nutritious food availability, we learned that there are many places in our area that sell food. Some shops usually open from 7 to 22. Timetables have very good availability.
Regarding the cost, nutritious food is often more expensive than unhealthy food.
Regarding the accessibility, some shops are accessible because they have parkings and ramps, but some shops haven’t got any of these.
Regarding the options, they have many foods appropriate for the different cultures and healthy foods. In the greengrocer’s there are different types of vegetables and fruits, in the butcher’s, different types of meat and in the fishmonger’s, different types of fish and seafood. But the kebab and the bakery only offer salads as a healthy option.
In one of the places we visited, you can also sit outside.

Our Food Environment Map: Observations
A possible solution to improve food security in our community is selling more healthy products. Factories produce some unhealthy food and people buy it. So the factories should realize that they should make more healthy products and people would buy more nutritious food.
To convince ourselves to buy healthy food, we should reconsider why it is better for our health.
Another solution could be that we do not waste healthy food and make the most of it, for example, make foods that we have left over with healthier food.
Finally, city leaders should convince the local city to sell and buy healthier food.
The idea to improve food security that we think is most important for our community is to take advantage of the best local healthy products.
