The 2008-2022 Total Diet Study Food Consumption Tables (2015 CCHS-Nutrition)

The 2008-2022 Total Diet Study Food Consumption Tables show the daily consumption of each Total Diet Study (TDS) food composite for various age-sex groups. The source for these consumption data is the 2015 Canadian Community Health Survey-Nutrition Component (2015 CCHS-Nutrition). When paired with concentrations of chemical contaminants in each TDS food composite, these consumption data allow the calculation of exposure of the Canadian population to contaminants through food. These consumption values are applicable to the Total Diet Study years 2008 to 2022. For sample years further out from 2015, increasing caution should be used as the 2015 consumption survey data may be less representative of consumption in those years. Food consumption values are available for the total population (consumers and non consumers together) and for consumers only. Data are presented as food consumption in grams per person per day and in grams per 1 kg of body weight per day. Data are disaggregated by 29 age-sex groupings.
