A list of consumed food and usual serving sizes was compiled from previous local survey, using single 24hours dietary recalls and frequency questionnaires. The list was composed of 127 items and thenutrient composition was calculated by the computer program DietPro version 3.0. The FFQ wasadministered to each subject twice in a period of six months. To characterize food pattern consumption, the most frequently mentioned foods were identified. One hundred and four (104)workers were studied, randomly selected. Items consumed at least once a day by 50% of theworkers were: white bread, margarine, black coffee, white sugar, red beans and white rice. Variety of daily consumed foods was small. The top 30 foods on a daily basis ranged from less than 1.5 to 92%. This FFQ is easy to administer when studying the dietary intake of low-income populations. 2005 artículo científico 1679-9291 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=307223942012 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3072 Acta Scientiarum.
