Abstract This publication contains estimates of food and nutrient intakes by individuals residing in households in the 48 conterminous States and Washington, DC. The estimates are based on information provided by 15,128 individuals who participated in the 1989-91 Continuing Survey of Food Intakes by Individuals conducted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

For 71 food groups and subgroups, mean quantities of foods eaten per individual in a day and percentages of individuals who reported eating any food from the specified food groups and subgroups are presented. Also presented are tables of the mean intakes of food energy and nutrients; nutrient intakes per 1,000 kilocalories; nutrient intakes expressed as percentages of the 1989 Recommended Dietary Allowances; macronutrient sources of food energy; frequency of eating; percentage of individuals reporting specified eating occasions; mean intakes and percentages of individuals reporting drinking plain water; percentages of individuals reporting special diets by type of diet; usage of vitamin and mineral supplements by type of supplement; and frequency of salting food at the table.
