Abstract
ABSTRACT Migrants in situations of socioeconomic vulnerability face many hardships regarding their eating practices. The aim of this study was to identify how migratory trajectories affect their food choices and the processes of dietary acculturation they experience. This is a qualitative study, conducted through the episodic narrative method, based on interviews of eight migrants. The Food Choice Process Model was adopted as the theoretical framework for the Content Analysis. Integration, assimilation, and separation were identified as acculturation processes and it was concluded that the financial situation was what most affected migrants’ food choices in the early stages of life in Brazil.
