Surinam, on the northern coast of South America, is one of the newer and developing countries in the Western Hemisphere and one about which little is known in this country. This survey of infants and preschool children details information on food habits about which little has hitherto been reported.

The present study describes food habits in adolescents in thirty-five countries and regions (European countries/regions, Israel, Canada and the USA), based on the food-frequency questions from the cross-sectional Health Behaviour in School-aged Children survey of the year 2001-2. A total of 162 305 pupils of 11, 13 or 15 years of age completed an anonymous standardised questionnaire on health and lifestyle factors during one school hour. Large differences in food habits between countries were found: the consumption frequency of fruit varied from on average 2.8 to 5 d/week, the consumption of vegetables varied from on average 2.4 to 5.5 d/week, the consumption of soft drinks varied from 2.1 to 5 d/week and sweet consumption from 2.6 to 5 d/week. Methodological problems in comparing between countries are discussed. Nonetheless, the results indicate a need for national and international health promotion programmes to improve adolescents' food habits.

Abstract Sillicified anthoecia (fertile lemmas and paleas) of grasses (Berriochloa communis, Berriochloa primaeva, and Berriochloa cf nova) were found in the oral cavity and rib cage in articulated skeletons of Teleoceras major buried in late Clarendonian volcanic ash in Nebraska. The plant fossils, thought to be food residues, help clarify the enigmatic paleobiological role of Teleoceras, which had hippotamus-like proportions but very high-crowned teeth. Teleoceras was probably amphibious, but siliceous grasses formed a significant portion of its diet.
