Generation Victoria's 'About Your Child's Food' Survey: A depth survey about Commercial Foods for Infants and Young Children

Commercial foods for infants and young children (CFIYC) in Australia are widespread yet largely unregulated. Many parents believe these foods are healthy, despite most not meeting children’s nutritional needs at a crucial age for lifelong healthy development. This online survey about CFIYC was administered parents in Generation Victoria (GenV) in June to August 2025. A paper describing the rationale, development, administration and results of this survey is in development: Li SX, Schmidtke A, Shepherd DA, Clifford SA, Walsh AT, Wilson OJ, Cyza JH, Wake M, Truby H. Widespread consumption of commercially produced foods by Australian children - action needed to enable healthy choices. Submitted to the Medical Journal of Australia, April 2026.
