Résumé : This paper considers food as a social-biological fact. The symbolic value of food products is taken into account as relevant data to analyze the consumers' choice and the role of food in the individual's identities and their feeling of belonging to a society to a common history. The notion of "plural quality" is developed, linking physical and biological variables with social and cultural ones; this consideration is important to define the commercial strategies and the quality signs addressed to the market. In an analogical way products are link to their origin, depends on the same time on the climatic conditions of production and on feeling and cultural links of the consumers with the origin production place. Consequently, it is concluded that the methods to establish origin labels cannot be copied, each product, each situation, demands a specific analysis. The types of market, the institutions, knowledge and resources, the norms and rules concerning products and natural resources, will modify the products' qualification process.
