Except for fresh chicken which could also be reported in pieces, all the rest are to be reported in kilos.
Try to assess the unit price if reasonable. The level of consumption should also be assessed in relation to the size and composition of the family. In Moslem areas, it is possible that pork intake is almost nil. There are also certain sects who do not consume beef or any other kind of meat. In such cases where there is abnormal pattern of intake, an explanation must be provided.
Item 5. Meat Preparations - Covers the average weekly consumption of processed meat by the family. The different meat preparations are classified into groups depending on their packaging.
a. Canned - This refers to meat products, which are packed and are sold in tin cans like corned beef, Vienna sausages, meat loaves, ham, etc. Try to get a listing first of all canned meat consumed and enter the quantity and value. Use “Remarks” space to list items.
b. Uncanned - This refers to manufactured and processed meat products which can either be bought packed in polyethylene bags or per kilo or per piece like tocino, longganisa, bacon, ham, hotdogs, cured pork, etc. The same procedure as in (a) above should be done to elicit information.
Note that uncanned and unprocessed meat cuts, e.g., pork chops, sold in the market are considered as fresh meat. Only those meat cuts which have been processed or cured like sweetened pork chops are included under this item.
