CCHS: Canadian Community Health Survey; CHMS: Canadian Health Measures Survey combined Cycles 1 and 2 data; CI: confidence interval; n: sample size; SE : standard error; y: years.^∗The report by Garriguet [3] did not provide standard error values. ^†Adults age range for CHMS is 19 to 79, and it is 19 and above for CCHS 2.2. ^‡Children and adolescents age range for CHMS is 6–18 y for all food groups except for meat and alternatives, which is 4–18 y. The age range of children and adolescents for CCHS 2.2 is 4–18 y for all food groups. ^§Data from Garriguet [3].
