* We determined the food source by combining foods purchased at groceries, convenience stores, or supermarkets and products made at home into one category (home) and combining ready-to-eat food obtained at school and other sources, such as restaurants and fast food establishments, into another category (away from home). ** For saturated fats and total sugars, we calculated the percentage of calories that each of these nutrients contributed to the total daily calories of each food source. For sodium we estimated the intake of sodium (mg) per 100 calories. ^† We assessed differences using the Wilcoxon signed rank test comparing home versus school in preschool children (n = 428) and adolescents (n = 445). ^‡ IQR, interquartile range.
