摘要

研究背景：隨著時代的進步、家庭結構飲食型態改變，使得國人外食比率增加，便利快速的連鎖速食餐飲業也蓬勃發展，在台灣的連鎖速食餐廳也以孩子為主體，設計多種以兒童考量的專屬餐點。然而，一些研究指出餐廳兒童餐提供之內容物多數仍以雞塊、薯條等速食為主，因此熱量容易超過建議標準，其中更蘊含高油、高鈉等問題，且蔬果量提供不足。本研究研究目的為了解台灣連鎖速食餐廳兒童餐餐點內容、六大類食物以及熱量及營養素狀況。
研究方法：本研究以隨機抽樣台中市有提供兒童餐之3家連鎖速食餐廳為研究對象。研究者收集兒童餐餐點並進行秤重，分析兒童餐餐點內容與營養成分，了解其連鎖速食餐廳之兒童餐現況。
研究結果：本研究結果顯示，連鎖速食餐廳兒童餐餐點訂價約落在51-100元之間。兒童餐點多以提供炸雞塊、薯條等油炸類速食，餐點副餐多數會搭配汽水、奶茶及100%柳橙汁等。兒童餐點其平均脂肪、鈉及維生素C之供應高於1/3 DRIs（Dietary Reference Intakes）﹔鈣、鐵、鋅、維生素E、B1、B6低於1/3 DRIs建議量。六大類食物之平均供應量為不均衡，且蔬菜類、乳品類及水果類皆低於每日飲食指南之建議標準。
結論：連鎖速食餐廳所提供之兒童餐點，其平均熱量供應低於1/3DRIs，六大類食物供應不均。連鎖速食餐廳可多供應新鮮的蔬果類，及減少供應油炸食物及含糖飲料，使幼兒能夠攝取均衡營養，以促進幼兒健康之成長。
