a Household income per capita in minimum wages.

b Model 1: adequacy of fruits and vegetables. Model 2: adequacy of fruits and vegetables, macronutrients and fats, calcium, sodium and potassium. Amount of ultra-processed foods less than or equal to the amount observed for both models.

d Average (standard error).

e Cost in Reais (percentage in relation to the cost observed in the period) calculated as: [(optimized cost - observed cost)/observed cost × 100].
