Unhealthy Foods
chocolate milk
Two items assessed how frequently their child consumed sweets (eg, sweetened cereals, fruit bars) and sweetened drinks (eg, juice, chocolate milk) on an average day. Frequency was assessed via a Likert scale ranging from 0 (never) to 5 (≥5 times per day). We created an additive index by summing the total number of times the child consumed unhealthy foods each day.
