We investigated whether food group availability, diversity, and nutrient composition of food pantry inventories differed across districts in Bridgeport, CT – a city with high rates of food insecurity. Food pantry inventories differed in the variety of food items, but differences in the relative proportions of USDA Food Groups were not significant. However, the availability of Vegetable types – specifically Legumes and Dark-Green Leafy vegetables – differed across pantries. Pantry inventories with less variety also contained foods with more calories, saturated fat, cholesterol, and sodium, on average. Thus, food availability and nutritional quality can vary across food pantries and city districts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
