Following is a response from DHS Technical Specialist, Rukundo Benedict:

Thanks for your question. It would be good the know the context in which you plan to use this variable as this is not a standard WHO IYCF variable. What does the "nutritious food given to child" variable mean? It seems like you are trying to create a variable similar to the minimum dietary diversity (MDD). I would refer you to this post as it walks through how to create the MDD. It will also give you an example of code for how to create the "nutritious food given to child" binary variable if you decide that is what you want to do.
