%X In this study, we used the Canadian Community Health Survey-Nutrition (CCHS) 2015 data to examine the consumption patterns of grain-based foods (GBFs) for Canadian adults. We used a k-mean cluster analysis based on the contribution of 21 grain-based foods to total energy intake of adults in Canada to find the dietary patterns of GBFs. Cluster analyses rendered seven dietary patterns including: ¡®other bread¡¯, ¡®cake and cookies¡¯, ¡®pasta¡¯, ¡®rice¡¯, ¡®mixed¡¯, ¡®white bread¡¯, and finally ¡®whole wheat and whole-grain bread¡¯. ¡®No grain¡¯ and ¡®rice¡¯ consumers had lower intakes of dietary fibre, folate, iron and calcium, which are the nutrients of public health concern in Canada. Adults consuming a ¡®mixed grain¡¯ dietary pattern had a greater daily intake of calcium, potassium, magnesium, riboflavin, and vitamin B6 than those in the ¡®no grain¡¯ dietary pattern. We also observed that a considerable proportion of individuals clustered in the ¡®rice¡¯ group are immigrants and belong to households with lower income levels
