One quarter(25 percent) drank more liquids than usual while 36 percent drank the same amount. Some 37percent ate somewhat less food, 33 percent ate the same amount <strong>of</strong> food, and seven percent atemuch less. Children in the Far Western Region were much more likely than those in the Mid-WesternRegion to be given much less to drink and eat, and much less likely to be given to drink and eat.Given the sample sizes, variations by background characteristic showed no obvious or reliabletrends.
