Daily Diet Primary Research
Introduction
To form the initial starting point of our project, we conducted a series of questionnaires to gain valuable primary research. These questionnaires were conducted using a series of age appropriate questions, so that we could gather a wealth of information from a multitude of sources. The first questionnaire was aimed at young children, the next at their parents, and the final - aimed at people from our own generation. We did this to be able to contrast and compare the results, hoping to find a pattern, a problem and a solution. This publication shows examples of the varying responses we received that furthered our interest on the topic and that will help us to eventually create an innovative and exciting project.

Evaluation
We were very pleased with the results we got back. It has given us a lot of potential leads to follow and shown us that healthy eating has improved quite a bit over the past 10 years. After recieving the results we noticed a trend throughout the questionnaire that children were not answering some of the questions, this is due to how we worded them and how it is too hard for children of that age range to understand. We would still like to continue the primary research to see how older children compare to younger children to give us more ground to work with and to see if there’s any more trends.
