CI = confidence interval; OR = odds ratio; #Ref = reference value; adjusted for country, gender, age, education, and income.

aWe tested for flavor by country interaction effects (and flavor by age effects) and found the interaction terms were not significant, therefore the interactions terms were not included in the final model. The results presented in this table are for all four countries.

*Significant at p < .05.
