Abstract

This study provides a unique view of the demand for carbohydrate sources in Russia at the household level. The data used in this analysis was obtained from a 1996 survey in eight Russian metropolitan areas. An AIDS model is used to examine the expenditures for potatoes, bread, flour, rice, and pasta. The impacts of household demographic factors on the consumption of carbohydrates are also discussed.
