Abstract: Because public health measures must include_ factors that influence food selection away from home,_ the lunchtime food selection and caloric purchases at an_ employee cafeteria were studied daily for one year._ Study methods included an inventory control cash_ register system for variations related to seasonal changes, outdoor noon-time temperature, and day of the_ week. The food selection pattern remained extremely_ stable, although total climate control of the work_ setting may have been a factor. Slight seasonal changes_ occurred in spring and summer when selection of lower_ calorie foods, such as fruit, salad, yogurt, and cottage_ cheese, increased and selection of starch and cooked_ vegetables decreased. Temperature and season did not_ influence the pattern of selecting various side dishes_ around a main dish. Day of the week showed notable but_ limited variations on Fridays when selection of fish_ main dishes and desserts increased, the rate of total_ main dishes selected was highest, and there were fewer_ cafeteria customers.__
