%X A partir d¡¯une enqu¨ºte effectu¨¦e en milieu urbain taiwanais aupr¨¨s de neuf Fran ais(e)s ayant migr¨¦ ¨¤ Taiwan et mari¨¦(e)s avec des Taiwanais(e)s, l¡¯auteur propose de r¨¦fl¨¦chir ¨¤ la question des pratiques alimentaires en situation de mixit¨¦ conjugale. Il fait l¡¯hypoth¨¨se que ces pratiques alimentaires doivent ¨ºtre observ¨¦es et s¡¯appr¨¦cier en fonction des diff¨¦rents repas et moments alimentaires: petit-d¨¦jeuner, d¨¦jeuner, nourritures de rue, d ner conjugal, repas dans la belle famille. Ces situations sont riches d¡¯ambivalences : attachement aux habitudes mais aussi passage du d¨¦go t au go t ou bien de la m¨¦fiance ¨¤ la curiosit¨¦, double appr¨¦ciation pour la nourriture dont la pr¨¦sentation n¡¯est pas estim¨¦e de la m¨ºme fa on que les produits eux-m¨ºmes, efforts pour accepter les mani¨¨res de table dans le cadre d¡¯un rapport de force social et/ou affectif, enfin ¡®¡®oubli¡¯¡¯ de la question alimentaire au profit du lien social qu¡¯il produit. From an investigation made in urban zones with nine male and female French people having migrated to Taiwan and married with Taiwaneses, the author studies the issue of food tensions in situation of mixed couples. He presents the hypothesis that these tensions vary according to food grips: breakfast, lunch, street foods, conjugal dinner, meals with allies. Such food tensions provoke varied practices and judgments: attachment to habits but also the passage of disgust to appreciation, distrust regarding curiosity, double appreciation for food displayed which is not esteemed in the same way as the products themselves, efforts to accept table manners within the framework of a social or emotional balance of power, finally ¡®¡®forgetting¡¯¡¯ the issue for the benefit of the social link which it produces.
