Data were collected only from adult citizens after informed consent. Results and discussion: A high percentage of participants in both countries regularly consume milk, on a daily dose varying from 125 to 250 mL. Some participants in both counties do not consume milk because they do not feel the need to. Additionally, a high number of French participants do not consume milk because they don’t like it, while in Portugal a high percentage do not consume due to reported lactose intolerance. The participants in both countries tend to consume semi-skimmed milk more often than other types of milk. Finally, significant differences were observed for the consumption of white brands, being these preferred in France, while in Portugal consumers tend to adopt more frequently the commercial brands. Conclusion: The results obtained allowed concluding that there are some common aspects regarding the milk consumption patterns among the participants form the two countries, but also highlighted some differences, that are relevant to better plan public policies in both countries. | pt_PT |
