Résumé
This qualitative study investigates how immigration affects the food choices of Muslim Arab immigrants who currently reside in two communities in Southern Ontario, Canada. When immigrants move to a new country they tend to adjust in a variety of ways, this includes a change in their food choices. This process of cultural adjustment, or acculturation, occurs with various immigrant groups, including Arab Muslim immigrants to Canada. This group was selected as the focus for this research due to the growing Arab Muslim immigrant population in Canada and the lack of previous research among this population. This study utilizes a phenomenological methodology to understand participant's lived experiences, as well as their perceptions and feelings around food choice. This study also aims to determine whether Arab Muslims have maintained their traditional diet or are incorporating more Western foods into their diet. In order to have a rich source of data, the study recruits Arab Muslims mothers who have resided in Canada for five years or more. Data is collected by semi‐structured individual interviews with the participants conducted in Arabic. Interview questions focus on the participant's experience of moving to Canada in terms of food availability, meal preparation and food choices. Data are translated into English and coded utilizing the NVivo10 Qualitative Analysis Software environment. In addition, the participants are administered an adapted version of The Male Arab‐American Acculturation Scale (MAAS) to all study participants, which uses a descriptive manner to discuss participants' attitudes towards acculturation. Results from initial qualitative interviews indicate that Arab immigrants to Canada strive to maintain their traditional eating practices and food choices. Participants report that traditional foods were widely available in their communities at large supermarkets, but they expressed concerns over the costs of food and the general lack of flavour and freshness of food in Canada. They felt that their traditional foods maintained a link to their cultural identity and that, as mothers, they had an important role to play in feeding their families while maintaining their cultural background. The participants reported generally avoiding fast food. Most did not take their families to eat out at restaurants except rarely and on special occasions due to financial constraints. Participants expressed a variety of attitudes towards Western food and to religious observances around food. While some were open minded about trying Western foods, some expressed resistance to trying new things. There were varying levels of adhering to religious dietary observances; some participants stressed the importance of strict religious observances around food, others stressed that “good Muslims should be flexible”.

Imitation des enseignantsNi prévalence calibrée, ni vérité terrain. Validation humaine à venir. Le volet Gemma est une étiquette directe du modèle pour chaque travail de la base, lue sur la notice réduite au titre. Le volet Codex est un classifieur appris des 10 348 étiquettes directes de Codex et calibré sur les taux pondérés de l'échantillon; les champs sans appui suffisant ne portent aucun appel Codex. Le mode candidate est l'union des deux volets; le consensus est leur intersection. Ces sorties portent le statut machine_predicted_unvalidated et ne sont pas des étiquettes humaines.
