Abstract Data on 3-day intakes of 200 commonly used foods and food groups by individuals in the Nationwide Food Consumption Survey 1977-78 are reported. The survey was conducted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture from April 1977 to March 1978 and included about 38,000 individuals in the 48 conterminous States. Data are tabulated by 16 sex-age categories and for total individuals. The 200 tables include the percentage of individuals using the food, the number of eating occasions at which the food was consumed, and the quantities (grams) of the food consumed by users per day and per eating occasion. Foods included in each table are explained briefly in the text. The number of eating occasions and quantities of food consumed by users are described by averages, standard deviations, and maximum values. Quantities consumed per day and per eating occasion are further described by values at seven specified percentiles.
