Abstract

BACKGROUND: Adolescence is a period of transition from childhood to early adulthood, an important period because of the rapid development of reproductive organs. The quality of adolescent food consumption in South Tangerang City in 2018 was not appropriate because of consumption less fiber, fruit, and vegetables, consuming foods high in sugar, fast food, and skipping meals, and consuming snacks outside the home. Adolescent eating behavior was also determined through knowledge information and attitude about food originated from parents’ feeding practices that influenced adolescent eating behavior.
