| Abstract;The use of nutritionally balanced food was evaluated by a questionnaire survey that was distributed to 250 university students. The responses show that nutritionally balanced foods were extensively used as a complete meal and/or snack. Those students with an awareness of nutrition used more support foods, referred to as "supplements" and also extensively used nutritionally balanced foods. The nutritional value of the nutritionally balanced foods was evaluated. Most were low in protein content, high in fat content and inadequate in fatty acid composition. There was a large variation in nutrient contents, and they were judged not to be suitable as a complete meal. The results of this survey suggest that consumers should carefully select such foods.
