Following is a response from Senior DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:

I have prepared a Stata program (attached) that gives the indicator for Table 11.5 of the Kenya 2022 report. There is a discrepancy of 3 cases in the n but the percentages for the overall distribution agree exactly. The category "mixed milk feeding" in Table 11.4 requires a separate construction and I did not take the time to do it. Footnote 1 to table 11.4 would help you to construct it if you want it. Some of the distinctions between categories of "diet" are survey-specific and cannot be done in a generic way. You have to look at the list for variables v409-v414, for example for differences involving yogurt and whether a drink contains sugar. I tried an approach using locals that is different from what's on GitHub.

Here is a link to a related paper that I co-authored recently: https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fnut.2023.10581 34/full.
