Different food choice motives predict the consumption of a high quantity and a high variety of vegetables in European older adults.

Data were collected as part of the VeggiEAT project, an EU funded project aiming to understand and increase vegetable intakes inDenmark (DK), France (FR), Italy (IT) and the UK. Self-reported vegetable intake, liking for vegetables, attitudes towards intake(from the Food Choice Questionnaire, the Dutch Eating Behavior Questionnaire and the Food Neophobia Scale) and some demo-graphic variables were requested by questionnaire. Quantity, variety and quantity and variety of vegetable consumption combinedwere subsequently investigated.
