Abstract
Reviews a range of diet survey methods which are commonly utilized by nutritionists. All methods are time‐consuming and demanding for subjects and researchers. It is therefore essential that appropriate retrospective or prospective methods are selected to meet the purpose of the survey. For researchers concerned with changing dietary behaviour, stresses that information on the social context within which food is consumed should be collected as well as data on food and nutrient intake.
