Food Frequency Dietary Assessment: How Bad Is Good Enough?

This issue of the Journal features a diverse set of papers on dietary epidemiology. Although these papers might not help us decide which party buffet items to select in the coming days of the holiday food season, they do represent a cross section of the current status of the field of dietary epidemiology. This field includes a rapidly growing number of studies using variations of the food frequency method of dietary assessment and, at the same time, studies that continue to critically examine the validity of that very same method. The food frequency validation studies in this issue (1
–3) and their accompanying commentaries (4, 5) are noteworthy contributions to
