The purpose of this study is to investigate the current situation and how the content of television nutrition programs and their role in culture is.The research method is based on the qualitative content analysis approach. Data are recorded and collected, implemented, reduced, deduced, and analyzed based on the method of Mayring. Three programs from Persian language networks were selected as sample. The purposeful sampling method is selected.The results showed 6 categories of culture manifestation in TV food programs, cooking, nutrition sociology, luxury status, leisure, and the appearance and construction of programs along with their subcategories in food TV programs were displayed. It was found that the status of food TV programs includes: modeling and representing culture, showing luxury, the presence of religion in the field of food, ignoring social classes and the lack of visual effects.Television plays an important role in transmitting values, changing attitudes and behaviors, and guiding the lifestyle and culture of society.
