The article presents the directions of the development of food consumption in Poland in view of the changes occurring in the EU. The aim of this paper is to identify the relationship between the level of economic development of a country and the consumers’ standard of living. The starting point of the discussion is an interdisciplinary presentation of the current development of the theory of consumption. Next, the changes in food consumption in Poland are presented against the background of general European trends in 2009–2015. The explored trends include both the quantitative and qualitative transformations in the amounts and structure of food consumption. This paper was developed based on secondary information sources published by the Polish Central Statistical Office (GUS) and Eurostat. It has been shown that the presented direction of changes follows in step of the research in this field performed during the last 15 years.
