Abstract: Socio-educational centers are places where juvenile offenders are held and subjected to socio-educational measures. One of these centers in Minas Gerais has an outsourced Food and Nutrition Unit (UAN) that is responsible for providing meals to juveniles and employees. The objective of this study was to evaluate the acceptability of meals offered to employees through a satisfaction survey, in addition to verifying the hygienic and sanitary quality of the food and analyzing food waste. A total of 59 employees participated, and the results showed that the acceptance rate of the meals was 57% on the first day of evaluation and 72% on the second day. Most employees were satisfied with the appearance, taste and quantity of the food, but the temperature and variety generated dissatisfaction. Some employees reported the presence of hairs, stones, raw, burnt and spoiled food, indicating flaws in storage, production and distribution. Despite this, the leftover-intake rate was good (4.96%), but the clean leftover rate was high (27.93%), indicating problems with the amount of food produced. Regarding general acceptability, 65% of employees were satisfied, 30% considered the meal average, and 6% were dissatisfied. It is concluded that, although the UAN needs to improve certain aspects of the process, such as temperature control and the variety of food preparations, it still meets the needs of most of its users in terms of taste, appearance, smell, texture and quantity of the meals offered.
