23. Fruit and vegetable portions sizes for children are often referred to as the amount a child can hold in their hand. As this will differ from child to child and will vary by age it is not possible to incorporate this into any systematic analysis of children's fruit and vegetable consumption.

24. Hybrid breads were recorded by interviewers as open "other answers" in 2003 and a code was added to the codeframe when the data were edited. From 2008 onwards "Wholemeal/white mixture e.g. 'Best of both'" was an explicit code on the interviewers' screens.

25. For example, if both parents ate five or more portions the parental consumption value matched that of both parents. If one parent consumed more portions than the other the parental consumption matched the highest value of either parent. In households where one parent was interviewed the parental value matched that parent's consumption.
