This report, the first in a series, presents the initial results of the 2004 Canadian Community Health
Survey (CCHS): Nutrition, which was designed to answer some of these questions. It is the first
national survey of Canadians' eating habits since the early 1970s and is the largest and most
comprehensive survey of its kind ever conducted in Canada.  Throughout 2004, in face-to-face interviews, over 35,000 people were asked to recall what they had eaten during the previous 24 hours. The survey also asked when they ate-breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks-and where the food they ate was prepared-at home, in restaurants, in fast-food outlets.
