Abstract

Only recently, in 1994, the Portuguese Food Balance (“Balança Alimentar Portuguesa 1980-1992”), was published by the Instituto Nacional de Estatística (INE). These new series gave continuity to earlier work on this subject, making available very interesting and up-to-date information concerning Portuguese food consumption.

The authors wish to thank Florinda Veigas for her collaboration in obtaining the data and the anonymous reviewers for their comments.
