To describe food expenditure and consumption of foods prepared away from home among Mexican adults.
Data were from 45 241 adult participants in the National Health and Nutrition Survey 2006, a nationally-representative, cross-sectional survey of Mexican households. Descriptive statistics and multivariable linear and logistic regression were used to assess the relationship between location of residence, educational attainment, socioeconomic status and the following: 1) expenditure on all food and at restaurants, and 2) frequency of consumption of 'comida corrida' or restaurant food and street food.
Food expenditure and consumption of food prepared away from home were positively associated with socioeconomic status, educational attainment, and urban vs. rural residence (p<0.001 for all relationships in bivariate analyses).
Consumption of food prepared outside home may be an important part of the diet among urban Mexican adults and those with high socioeconomic status and educational attainment.
描述墨西哥成年人的食品支出以及在外制备食物的消费情况。
数据来自2006年全国健康与营养调查中的45241名成年参与者，这是一项对墨西哥家庭具有全国代表性的横断面调查。采用描述性统计以及多变量线性和逻辑回归来评估居住地点、教育程度、社会经济地位与以下方面之间的关系：1）所有食品及餐馆用餐的支出，以及2）“家常便饭”或餐馆食物和街头食品的消费频率。
食品支出以及在外制备食物的消费与社会经济地位、教育程度以及城乡居住情况呈正相关（双变量分析中所有关系的p<0.001）。
在墨西哥城市成年人以及社会经济地位高和教育程度高的人群中，在外制备食物的消费可能是饮食的一个重要组成部分。
