To assess the contribution of street foods to the energy and nutrient needs of street food vendors.
A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted. Food intake for the street food vendors was measured using the 24 h recall method and a semi-quantitative FFQ with emphasis on the source of all foods consumed.
Kampala, Jinja and Masaka districts, Uganda.
The study included 225 street food vendors trading in prepared cooked foods.
The majority of vendors (87·6 %) were women with age range of 21-50 years. Traditional dishes were the most commonly prepared foods and classified into main meals, sauces, vegetables and snacks. The food groups consumed most commonly by street food vendors fall under energy-giving and body-building foods (0·26 (sd 0·81)). The mean daily intake of energy from street foods varied between 22·4 % and 25·6 % (2412 kJ). Carbohydrates contributed the highest proportion of energy (70·1 % to 93·4 %), followed by protein (38·6 % to 44·9 %) and fat (21·9 % to 26·3 %). Street food vendors obtained 24·0 % to 32·5 % of their RDA for Ca from street vended foods, with the lowest intake in Jinja (11·2 % to 23·9 %, P < 0·05). Niacin and thiamin intakes from street foods were respectively above 74 % and 150 % of the RDA. The contribution of street foods to the RDA for Zn ranged from 81·9 % to 190·9 %, and from 3·5 % to 4·9 % for retinol. Fe intake from street vended foods was 40·9 % to 49·7 % of the RDA.

评估街头食品对街头食品摊贩的能量和营养需求的贡献。
横断面描述性研究。使用 24 小时回顾法和半定量食物频率问卷（重点关注所有消费食物的来源）来测量街头食品摊贩的食物摄入量。
乌干达坎帕拉、金贾和马萨卡地区。
研究包括 225 名在制备熟食的街头食品摊贩。
大多数摊贩（87.6%）为年龄在 21-50 岁之间的女性。传统菜肴是最常准备的食物，并分为主餐、酱汁、蔬菜和小吃。街头食品摊贩最常食用的食物组属于供能和构建身体的食物（0.26（sd0.81））。街头食品摊贩每日摄入的能量平均来自街头食品，范围在 22.4%到 25.6%（2412 千焦耳）。碳水化合物提供的能量比例最高（70.1%到 93.4%），其次是蛋白质（38.6%到 44.9%）和脂肪（21.9%到 26.3%）。街头食品摊贩从街头出售的食品中获得的钙 RDA 的 24.0%到 32.5%，其中金贾的摄入量最低（11.2%到 23.9%，P<0.05）。从街头食品中获得的烟酸和硫胺素摄入量分别超过 RDA 的 74%和 150%。街头食品对锌 RDA 的贡献率从 81.9%到 190.9%不等，视黄醇的贡献率从 3.5%到 4.9%不等。街头出售的食品中铁的摄入量占 RDA 的 40.9%到 49.7%。
