Food Dilemma on the Road: What Matters the Most?

This research develops the conceptual understanding of how tourists consciously or unconsciously make food choices for self-restoration purposes. We argue that tourists’ need for novelty often conflicts with need for self-restoration in food consumption.Satiation of the restoration of one’s actual self affects the extent to which one seeks for novelty.
