The food intake time changes in 2-year-old children was evaluated on the basis of two studies conducted in 1973 and 1986. An increase in the consumption of dairy products, vegetables and fruits, fish and poultry was observed. In addition, the choice in dairy products and fat has changed: more semi-skimmed milk, less butter and more vegetable oil are consumed resulting in a better fatty acid balance in 1986. However, iron intake remains lower than the recommended dietary allowance given by the Centre de Coordination des Etudes et Recherches sur la Nutrition et l'Alimentation. Knowledge on the tendencies of food intake behaviour is useful to improve information and prevention.
