-100- The Statistical Bureau 's Survey The survey carried out by the Statistical Bureau of Iceland extended to childless households and families with all children under the age of 16. In addition, the father had to be from 25 to 66 years of age. If relatives or tenants shared meals or the husband or wife had an independent source of income, the family was excluded from the survey. Each family kept records for 4 weeks during the period March-December 1965. Of the 100 families, 26 were headed by laborers, 3 by seamen, 23 by craftsmen, 30 by government em- ployees and 18 by business and office workers. The average consumption among men in Reykjavík proved to be approximately 2700 calories. Thereof, 21% were from grain products, 26% dairy products, 13% meat, fish and eggs, 8% fruits and vegetables (60% potatoes) and 10% margarine. The sugar con- sumption was underestimated in the survey, but it is believed to have been about 20% of the energy. If this survey is compared to the study carried out by the Nutrition Council, it may be-seen that the consumption of fruits and vegetables increased considerably after 1940 because of in- creasing importation of fruits. The consumption of sugar and margarine also increased, while the consumption of fish decreased by at leasta half. In other aspects, the consumption seems to be similar. It is difficult to compare these surveys in detail because the original records were made in different ways. In addition, the survey done by the Statistical Bureau did not include the rural communities and it is therefore impossible to get a pic- ture of the dietary habits in the rural country during this period. The dietary survey of the Statistical Bureau of Iceland was recalculated at the Institute. Table 14.3 shows the average con- sumption of individual nutrients in the different food groups for an adult male. It must be pointed out that butter is grouped with dairy products and not fats. Where do the nutrients come from ? In table 14.3 the foods are divided into two groups. Included in the plant products group are grain products, fruits and vege-
