In April 2002 a survey was conducted about dietary habits of infants and toddlers attending kindergartens in Valsesia, through dietary journal compilation. From 149 answers (response rate = 70%) the results are: a limited vegetables consumption, with a potatoes excess and a legumes scarcity; only one half of children eats fruits daily; consumption of ham and cheese is higher than other proteinic foods; foods variety is weak and the menu is often repetitive in lunch and dinner.
