OBJECTIVE: To examine and characterize the dietary patterns of Chinese adults in nine provinces. METHODS: The subjects were selected from the 'China Health and Nutrition Survey' within age group of 18 - 70 years old in 2009. 24-hour dietary recall method for 3 consecutive days was used to collect information on food intake. RESULTS: Major dietary patterns of Chinese adults in nine provinces were labeled "rice/pork" in both men and women while "fruit/egg", "beef, mutton/poultry"and "ethnic food/legumes" in men and "fruit/milk", "tubers/grains" in women. Urban or rural life style and related characteristics of the population showed an influence on the dietary pattern (men: beta = -0.153 24, -0.153 24, 0.376 62, 0.148 10, P < 0.01; women: beta = -0.139 43, 0.222 00, -0.308 36, P < 0.01). CONCLUSION: The dietary patterns of Chinese adults varied by sex and "Rice/Pork" had been the typical dietary pattern among the Chinese adults.
