FDA Total Diet Study (TDS): Foods and Dietary Exposure Estimation

FDA Total Diet Study (TDS) Main Page

We choose foods to be sampled and analyzed in the FDA Total Diet Study (TDS) that are representative of foods in the U.S. population’s average diet. The list of foods collected and analyzed for the TDS underwent major revisions in 1991, 2003, and 2018, to reflect changes in what people in the U.S. eat.


If you have questions about the FDA Total Diet Study, email TDS@fda.hhs.gov.
