2: 1 cup equivalent = 1 cup cut-up raw or cooked vegetables; 1/2 cup dried vegetables.
Note: The analysis of starchy vegetables, including potatoes was conducted using NHANES data from 17,310 persons 2 years of age and older. Intakes reported on the recalls were translated into quantities from the food group of interest using the MyPyramid Equivalents Database versions 1.0 and 2.0.
