Description

For sample adults, PIZYR is a recoded variable that reports how many times per year the respondent consumed pizza. This recoded variable is based on the responses to PIZZANO, which reports the frequency with which the respondent ate pizza, and PIZZATP, which reports the corresponding time unit. For information about the portion size, see PIZSIZ.

PIZYR is part of a series of variables initiated in 1987 related to food, food knowledge, and cancer. For related variables, please use the IPUMS NHIS search function and drop-down menus.
