To identify the nutritional problems of daily meals consuming many kinds of convenience foods in families in an urbanizing area in Japan, 140 housewives who had school children 12 years old were interviewed with questionnaires in November 1985. The convenience foods which consist of all types in market were classified into 3 categories in terms of the composition of food stuffs. Giving a score to each category of food, the use of convenience foods was measured for each family. Nutritional disadvantaies assessed among the high use families were as follows: 1) Level of minerals and vitamins intake were less sufficient than standards of RDI, even though levels of energy, protein and fat were enough and/or excess. 2) Nutritional indicators, i.e., fat energy ratio, protein energy ratio, animal fat ratio, animal protein ratio, and calcium phosphorus ratio showed almost same in all groups. 3) Incidence of "well balanced diet" was 13%, "poor balanced diet" and "undernourished diet" were most prevalent 45% and 42% families respectively. 4) The state of low quality or inadequate nutritional balance was identified more clearly by the nutritional balance indices, like the "Nutritional Suitable Score", "Index of Nutritional Quality", and "Nutritional Balance Area".
