However, research on the kind of street food offered and its composition is scarce. The main objective of this study is to characterize the urban street food environment, including vending places, the food offered, its nutritional composition, food purchasing patterns and advertising.Methods and analysis:This protocol provides a framework for a stepwise, standardized characterization of the street food environment; it consists of three steps that are of increasing complexity and demand increasingly great human and technical resources. Step 1 comprises identification of street food vending sites and characterization of the products available; this stage may be complemented with an evaluation of food advertising in the streets. Step 2 comprises description of street food purchasing patterns, by direct observation. Step 3 requires collection of food samples for bromatological analysis. Different levels of data collection may be defined for each step; hereafter, these are presented as core and expanded evaluations. For the most part, data analysis involves descriptive statistics and basic spatial analysis.Ethics and dissemination:This study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Institute of Public Health of theUniversity of Porto, Portugal. The research presents no risk to vendors or consumers, who will not be identified or identifiable through the information collected. Vendors will be kept informed and are free to refuse to collaborate. The findings of the study will be published on the World Health Organization (WHO) website as country reports, submitted for publication in international peer-reviewed journals, and presented at scientific meetings. 2019-01-01T00:00:00Z https://hdl.handle.net/10216/124970 Title: FEEDcities project Food Environment Description in cities - eastern Europe and central Asia Technical report (Sarajevo.

"What's on the Menu in Europe" ("EU Menu") survey. The goals of the PILOT-PANEUproject were to develop, test and evaluate the applicability of tools and procedures for conducting adietary survey including adolescents, adults and elderly people, based on 2 x 24-hr recall performedwith EPIC-Soft methodology. The Manual, protocols, questionnaires and other documents assistingthe implementation of the surveys were developed jointly by all partners; five participants prepared thecountry-specific files. Approximately 25% of picture series selected for estimation of the amount offood consumed was tested, involving persons aged 10-74 years, with perception andconceptualisation-memory methods within validation studies performed by five partners. The studyrevealed that the picture series can be best used for foods of similar appearance and density. The 2x24-hr recall dietary surveys were carried out by four partners involving 1012 interviewed persons selectedwith the combination of random and convenience sampling. The Greek partner carried out thecomparative analysis of the results of the 2011 national nutrition survey and those obtained with thenew Hellenic Health Foundation nutrition tool. The response rate was generally low, except inBulgaria, suggesting that the highest rate can be achieved if the random samples are selected incooperation with the National Statistical Offices taking into account the varying practices of handlingconfidential personal information. The present version of EPIC-Soft methodology tested had severalshortcomings which would likely be eliminated with the development of the e-StandardisedMethodologies Platform (e-SMP). The consortium made a number of recommendations for theimprovement and further development of the tools and procedures. Assuming that the recommendedmodifications are made, the tools and procedures developed and tested are considered applicable forthe EFSA "EU Menu" survey. 2013-01-01T00:00:00Z https://hdl.handle.net/10216/52965 Title: Evolução da disponibilidade de alimentos e bebidas em Portugal 2010-01-01T00:00:00Z https://hdl.handle.net/10216/118046 Title: Impacto do Imposto Especial sobre o Consumo de Bebidas Açucaradas e Adicionadas de Edulcorantes: Relatório do Grupo de Trabalho (Despacho N.º 2774/2018) 2018-01-01T00:00:00Z https://hdl.handle.net/10216/82229 Title: Personalised nutrition: paving a way to better population health (A White Paper from the Food4Me project) Editors: Food4Me Project Partners 2015-01-01T00:00:00Z https://hdl.handle.net/10216/78049 Title: Portugal.
