The related variable MAFEDTUBER24H (V414F) indicates whether the child's mother gave her youngest surviving child white potatoes, white yams, manioc, cassava, or any other foods made from roots during the previous day.

The related variable FEDTUBER24HX reports the number of times the child ate white potatoes, white yams, manioc, cassava, or any other foods made from roots in the previous 24 hours.
