Abstract
Weighing individual plate waste is time consuming and often impractical. As alternatives, two indirect measures were evaluated-visual estimation and children's ratings of plate waste. Visual estimations were highly correlated with percent waste (r = 0.93) and were quite accurate. Ratings by children were less accurate but were still considered a useful indirect measure that should be further developed.Entities:
