Based on empirical study, designed to capture the views of students in a leading Indian university on diverse types of dietary choices, this article specifically examines the extent of acceptability of beef and pork in hostel menus. The study found that while only widely accepted vegetarian and non-vegetarian food items like chicken and mutton featured in mess menus, the scale of social tolerance for beef and pork consumption among students is actually much larger, and much more widely spread than hegemonic mainstream claims have been ready to admit. Based on such findings, this sociological study raises wider implications regarding the politics of food choice in India today.

海得拉巴大学生的食物选择和社会差异

基于实证研究，旨在捕捉印度领先大学的学生对各种饮食选择的看法，本文专门研究了旅馆菜单中牛肉和猪肉的可接受程度。研究发现，虽然杂乱菜单中只有鸡肉和羊肉等被广泛接受的素食和非素食食品，但学生对牛肉和猪肉消费的社会容忍度实际上要大得多，而且比霸权的主流主张要广泛得多。已经准备承认了。基于这些发现，这项社会学研究对当今印度的食物选择政治产生了更广泛的影响。
