4 Introduction This is the food diary for your child taking part in the Pancake study. On the front page it is noted which date you should fill in the diary. The diary serves as a preparation for the interview you will take part in. During this interview everything your child ate and drank during the diary day will be recorded and stored on a computer. The diary is the starting point for the interview. On the following date and time a study employee will visit you at your home for the interview: Date: Time: If you have any questions or require further information, you can contact: Name: Telephone: Please ensure to read the instructions carefully before filling in the diary. 4

5 Instructions for completing your child s food diary General guidelines This food diary is to record everything your child ate and drank on the day noted on the front page. Only the food consumption of the child that takes part in the Pancake study should be filled in, not that of any other family members. If on the day selected your child has an unusual food intake due to an unusual event such as a party or illness, you should still record his/her actual food intake and inform the study employee during the interview. Do not adjust the food intake of your child. You should feed your child as you would have done without a diary. Record every bite or sip consumed by your child and ensure to include all small items, e.g. small bites of an apple or cake, little sweets, water consumed etc. The day starts when your child rises in the morning of the day mentioned on the front page, and ends when your child rises the next morning (so a complete day and night is monitored). Ensure to fill in the diary immediately after your child consumes any food or drink. This will make omission of consumed foods less likely. The picture book you received can be used to estimate the quantity of a food your child consumed. Ensure to pay attention to the information below each picture series to help you quantify accurately. If your child is away from you during any part of the diary day (day-care, school, family etc.) please advise their caretakers of the study and ask they complete the food recording booklet. When you collect your child, ask for the recording booklet and check it has been filled in completely. If not, please ask for details of food and drink consumed and fill it in yourself. If your child is old enough he/she may assist in filling in the booklet. The diary is structured for 7 eating periods, one page for each meal as well as periods between meals: before breakfast, breakfast, during the morning, lunch, during the afternoon, evening meal, during the evening and night. 5

6 What do we ask you to record? If your child did not consume during an eating period, you can check the box in the right corner of the page, and go on to the next eating period. During any eating period where your child consumed something, we ask that you record: o The starting time of the consumption. o The location of consumption. If the location differs from the categories specified in the diary (at home, school/day-care, friends/family, restaurant etc.), you can tick other and describe the location on the dotted line. Restaurant etc. includes snack bar, cafeteria, fast food restaurant, self-service restaurant, bar, café, brasserie etc. o The name of the food or drink (column food or drink ), followed by a further description of the exact type of the food (column description of food or drink ). o The quantity your child consumed. In the column description of food or drink you are asked to further describe the exact type of the food or drink. Please describe the food extensively, in a way that would make it possible to find the specific food in a store. Relevant in this description are: o The full product name: brand name, product type or flavour. o Specification on the composition: whole fat, low-fat, skimmed; sweetened with sugar or with artificial sweeteners; with added vitamins and/or minerals; light, etc. o Preservation method: fresh, deep-frozen, canned, dried, pasteurized, etc. o The type of packaging: glass, can, paper/carton, plastic, cardboard box, etc. If the food was prepared, you are also asked to describe the preparation method in this column, for instance boiled, fried, stir-fried, microwaved etc. Please also mention the type and brand name of fat you used for cooking. It would be helpful if you keep the empty packages of foods your child consumed during the day. In the column quantity consumed you should fill in the actual quantity consumed by your child. So if you served your child a whole glass of milk, but he/she drank only half of it, you would fill in ½ glass. You can describe the quantity your child consumed whichever way you find most convenient. There are different methods: o Using the picture book you received and writing down the picture number and letter. o In natural units, e.g. a slice of bread, a piece of fruit, etc. o In household measures, e.g. glasses, cups, bowls etc, or in different types of spoons (table spoons, tea spoons etc.) o In grams or ml if this is mentioned on the package. 6

7 Recipes: If your child consumed any home-prepared meals, record the recipes on the pages at the end of the diary (page 20-21). Describe all the ingredients used (including cooking fat) as per the headings given and the quantity of each ingredient. Ensure to indicate if the recorded quantity included inedible parts. Also include raw and cooked weight if applicable. Dietary supplements: On page 22 indicate if your child took any vitamins, minerals or other dietary supplements on this day. If applicable, give a full description of the supplement(s), and fill in the quantity consumed. Comments: On page 23 there is open space for comments. You can also use this page if you lack space in any other part of the diary.
