This is used to find out the dietary pattern of people residing in hostels or old age homes :

  • A.Food inventory method
  • B.Food diary
  • C.Diet history method
  • D.24-hour recall method

Answer: A

The method is the food inventory method.

In hostels, old age homes and other institutions, food is bought and cooked for everyone together. The inventory method records the stock of food at the start, adds the purchases and subtracts the stock left and the waste at the end of the period, and divides by the number of people fed. That gives the group's dietary pattern without questioning each resident.

The food diary, diet history and 24-hour recall are individual methods, in which one person records or remembers what he or she ate, so they suit households or individuals rather than institutions.
