dc.description.abstract	The paper explores the impact of HIV/AIDS on the food consumption pattern of households through empirical research and comparative analysis. The findings highlight that HIV/AIDS households are at a significant disadvantage despite spending a relatively greater proportion of household income on food. Unlike non-HIV/AIDS households, where female-headed-households were at a disadvantage, food-expenses are genderneutral in HIV/AIDS households. These women make up their income disadvantage by depending significantly on 'partly/fully sponsored' food and 'unrequited and/or unrevealed income'.	en_US
