Resumo(s)
This article aims to review the current literature pertaining to the effects of eating local
seasonal food on sustainable consumption. To this end, we examined definitions of seasonal and
local food, the methodological approaches adopted to study the impact of seasonal consumption
on sustainability, and sustainability dimensions investigated in journal articles. Highlighting what
seasonal and local means, it is crucial to evaluate the effect of the consumption of these foods on
sustainability. A systematic review of the literature was conducted using Scopus and Clarivate’s
Web of Science database in line with the recommendations from the Preferred Reporting Items for
Systematic Reviews and Meta Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Our findings suggest that the concept
of local seasonality provides relevant information to the study of sustainable consumption. However,
for better use of this concept, it is crucial to define what is local. At this point, regulation of labels
based on geographic proximity or political boundaries proves pertinent.
