dc.description.abstract-translatedThis paper investigates the evolving food consumption patterns in Slovakia, focusing on demand for healthier food options. By analyzing trends over time, we aim to determine whether Slovak consumers make healthier dietary choices compared to the past. This topic is particularly relevant in the context of rising health concerns and the global shift towards healthier lifestyles, especially in the light of the European Union's Farm to Fork Strategy, which emphasizes sustainable food systems and improved public health. The research revealed shifts in both expenditure patterns and food preferences between 2010 and 2023. There was a slight increase in household food spending in recent years, mainly due to a rising disposable income and inflation. Moreover, findings show an increasing interest in healthier food categories, with Slovak consumers choosing more fruits, vegetables, and dairy products while slightly reducing sugar and cereal consumption. These changes suggest a gradual alignment with healthier dietary choices, although meat remains a substantial part of the Slovak diet. Understanding these consumption patterns can help shaping public policies and initiatives that promote better nutrition while supporting the goals of sustainable agriculture.en
