ABSTRACT
There are two factors that influence diet problem which are rates of diabetes and other diet-related diseases are growing and fluctuation of the food price. This paper discusses human diet problem with fuzzy price. The approach used linear programming with fuzzy objective coefficient using linear membership function. The result showed that the uncertainty of food prices slightly affected the budget of human diet.
