We would like to submit the following correction to our recently published paper [1] because there was an error in the median intake ratio calculation used in the substitution strategies. The median intake ratios have been corrected throughout Supplementary Table S1. The corrected calculations have led to minor changes (i.e., less than 5% change in nutrient intakes) to results reported in the abstract (page 1), the substitution results text (page 8 and 9), tables and figures (Table 2, columns 4 and 5, page 8; Figure 1, light green and dark green bars, page 6; Figure 2, green bars page 7; Supplementary Table S1, substitution replacement rows; Supplementary Table S3, columns 4–8; and Supplementary Table S6, columns 2 and 3). The corrected tables and text are shown below. These changes have no material impact on the conclusions of our paper. We apologize for any inconvenience caused. The manuscript will be updated and the original will remain online on the article website.

Abstract

Substitution with a range of core items, or with fruits, vegetables and core beverages only, resulted in similar changes in energy intake (−8.8% and −13.6%), SFA (−13.4% and −19.4%), added sugars (−41.7% and −42.7%) and sodium (−9.0% and −15.6%), respectively.

Results

Both scenarios resulted in similar changes from the base case of +0.9% and +0.6%, and −8.8% and +3.6% for gram and energy intake respectively.
The difference in protein was −3.0% when substituting a range of core foods compared to −5.4% when only fruits and vegetables were targeted. The difference in nutrients compared to the base case intake were also less for the substitution scenario incorporating a range of core foods (range—3.0% for vitamin B6 to +5.0% for fiber and DFE compared to the substitution scenario targeting just core fruit and vegetables (range—7.9% for vitamin B 12 to +18.4% for vitamin C).
Substituting half of all discretionary foods to all core foods (Figure 2), produced a similar +0.9% change in grams of intake to replacing all discretionary choices (Figure 1).
