A corrigendum on
Characterizing adolescents' dietary intake by taste: Results from the UK National Diet and Nutrition Survey

by Bawajeeh, A., Zulyniak, M. A., Evans, C. E. L., and Cade, J. E. (2022). Front. Nutr. 9:893643. doi: 10.3389/fnut.2022.893643

In the published article, there was an error in Table 2 as published. The rows for “neutral” and “savory” tastes are not separated in the published article, and are instead all combined under “neutral taste.” Moreover, the row headings for the rest of the table are all stated as “neutral taste” rather than being specified for the other tastes (savory, salty, and bitter). The corrected Table 2 and its caption appear below.

TABLE 2
www.frontiersin.org

Table 2. Characteristics of adolescents' dietary intakes by the quintiles (Q) weight of foods consumed as a percentage of the total food weight.

A corrections has been made in Results, Neutral-Tasting Foods. The paragraph previously stated:

“Energy, carbohydrate, sugars, total fat and saturated fats all showed significant negative linear trends with increasing neutral-tasting foods. Energy intake decreased by 19% from the lowest to the highest quintile and there was a statistically significant negative trend of lower energy intake by 10 kcal/d (95% CI −15, −5; P < 0.001) for each increase in the proportion of neutral-tasting foods. Individuals in the highest quintile of neutral-tasting foods had lower carbohydrate (21%), total sugars (47%), and free sugars (54%) compared to those in the lowest quintile. Total fat and saturated fats intakes also showed negative overall trends of lower intakes with higher consumption of neutral-tasting foods. Processed meats consumption was 44% higher in the highest compared to the lowest quintile of neutral-tasting foods; with an overall significant trend (P < 0.01) per each percentage increase in neutral-tasting foods.”
