Data on food consumption and supplement intake were collected using an FFQ, which had been designed for the specific study population. Information on parental educational level and equivalent income was derived from questionnaires. Logistic regression modelling was used to analyse the effect of parental education, equivalent income and region on food intake, after adjusting for potential confounders.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec id="S1368980010003575_abs3" sec-type="general"><jats:title>Setting</jats:title><jats:p>Germany.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec id="S1368980010003575_abs4" sec-type="subjects"><jats:title>Subjects</jats:title><jats:p>A total of 3435 children aged 9–12 years.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec id="S1368980010003575_abs5" sec-type="results"><jats:title>Results</jats:title><jats:p>Substantial regional differences in food intake were observed between eastern and western Germany. Intakes of bread, butter, eggs, pasta, vegetables/salad and fruit showed a significant direct relationship with the level of parental education after adjusting for potential confounders, whereas intakes of margarine, meat products, pizza, desserts and soft drinks were inversely associated with parental education. Equivalent income had a weaker influence on the child's food intake.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec id="S1368980010003575_abs6" sec-type="conclusion"><jats:title>Conclusions</jats:title><jats:p>Nutritional education programmes for school-age children should therefore account for regional differences and parental education.</jats:p></jats:sec>
