[ES] Sabemos cómo debemos comer pero no comemos como debemos.
Esta paradoja del comensal actual es objeto de debate entre
sociólogos, nutricionistas y responsables de salud. Las difi cultades para
afrontarla sugieren ensayar aproximaciones diferentes a las habituales.
Pensar el comer desde los imaginarios colectivos que pueden entrar en
colisión quizá arroje nueva luz sobre dicha paradoja. Aquí ensayamos
ese acercamiento a partir de cuatro textos canónicos de la literatura
utópica en los albores de la revolución industrial. Su análisis revela un
confl icto de larga duración entre dos modos de imaginar la comida
ideal: el de las utopías modernas e ilustradas, que comparten los
expertos en nutrición, y el de las utopías populares, donde una cierta
racionalidad social, basada en los hábitos y tradiciones culinarias, se
opone a una alimentación racional.

[EN] We know how we should eat but we don't eat as we should. This paradox of the modern eater has long been the subject of debate amongst sociologists, nutritionists and healthcare workers. The difficulties faced when dealing with this paradox suggest the need for new approaches. By considering food from the potentially conflictive social imageries, it may be possible to shed some light on this paradox. In this work, we have approached this issue from the perspective of four canonical texts of utopian literature that were created at the dawn of the industrial revolution. Our analysis reveals a long-lasting conflict between two views of the ideal diet: that of modern and enlightened utopias, which is shared by nutrition experts, and that of the "popular" utopias, in which social rationality, based on culinary habits and traditions, opposed a rational approach to eating.
