Interviewer instructions
This question asks about what the child was fed in the preceding 24 hours. The purpose of this question is to determine what liquids or foods the child was given.

Read the question aloud and record the response before proceeding to the next question. Use the local terms for these liquids or foods. Make sure that the respondent understands the question, particularly what is meant by "since this time yesterday". Specify to the mother/primary caretaker: mid-morning, mid-afternoon, etc., depending on the time of the interview.

Circle the code corresponding to the response. If the mother/primary caretaker does not know the answer, repeat the question using other local words for the fluid or food. If the answer is still not known, circle '8' for 'DK'.
