Abstract
A study investigating the food intake patterns and beliefs among independent living residents in one continuing care retirement community in the Pacific Northwest, in which resident meals are provided. Three hundred and fifty-five participants were surveyed using a food frequency instrument and a series of questions about meal patterns and beliefs. Data gathered represented an 85% response rate and indicates that food intakes among the residents are good when compared to other studies of older Americans. The results suggest similar or better intakes among the very old (85+) in this community.
