The survey was administered at the University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC) pediatric dental clinic, a pediatric dental residency clinical training site. One hundred adult respondents with low income completed a 36\u2010item questionnaire during their child's dental appointment.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Almost half of respondents reported experiencing food insecurity (45%). Respondents who were food insecure experienced higher levels of nutrition insecurity (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.012), less confidence in choosing fruits and vegetables (FVs) (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.026), difficulty in purchasing FVs in their neighborhood (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.012), and more concern that FVs cost too much (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001) when compared to respondents who were food secure. Notwithstanding the barriers they face, almost all respondents reported that they eat FVs because of health benefits (95%) and to set a good example for their family (91%). Additionally, most respondents expressed an interest in produce Rx programs (80%) and nutrition education activities (81%).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>This study demonstrated the potential for produce Rx program uptake in a pediatric dental clinic setting through positive caregiver\u2010reported need and interest.
