The study looks at participants' knowledge and perceptions about nutrition and healthy food availability in urban low-income areas in Southern California by using Albert Bandura's (1998) social cognitive theory as it relates to health promotion. Exploratory analyses of this study indicate that majority of participants presented to have knowledge of nutrition and its importance to health and prevention of chronic illnesses. Majority of the participants' perceptions of healthy food access, regardless of income level, were that fresh produce and foods are costly and require a time commitment to prepare. Individuals in the lower income brackets tend to purchase food based on what they can afford, and which items are on sale. When it comes to effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on food consumption, many participants' included aspects of mental health, changed eating habits from pandemic induced stress and less grocery trips resulting in increased purchasing of nonperishable foods. This study highlights how food consumption may be affected by the increasing socioeconomic gap and contributes to social equality through nutrition.
