International audience. Background/Aims: Strategic goals for meat/seafood/egg consumption include variety and adherence to recommendations while avoiding excessive intake. The aim of this study was to investigate their association with sociodemographicand -economic characteristics in a general population of French adults.Methods: Dietary intake was assessed using at least six 24-hour dietary records collected during a 2-year period from 4,574 subjects aged 45–60 years who participated in the SU.VI.MAX cohort study from 1995 to 1997. Compliance with the meat/seafood/egg (1–2 servings/day) and the specific seafood ( 6 2 servings/week) recommendations, variety and daily costs were compared across sociodemographic and -economic categories using logistic regression and covariance analyses.Results: Compliance with the seafood recommendation was associated with older age (p trend ! 0.0001), higher education level (p trend = 0.0002) and higher occupational category (p = 0.007). The variety of meat/seafood/egg intake was positively correlated with higher occupational category (p = 0.02) and not living alone (p = 0.01). The meat/seafood/egg budget spent on white meat was higher for younger subjects (p trend = 0.007) with a lower education level (p trend = 0.001) and occupational category (p =0.0006). In contrast, fish costs increased with age (p trend =0.002) and education level (p trend = 0.0002), while red meat costs were positively correlated with higher occupational category (p = 0.02). Conclusions: Compliance with recommendations, variety and types of meat/seafood/eggs differed across sociodemographic and -economic categories.
