The preservation of the environment is essential to ensure life, especially in relation to water resources. The lack of knowledge of the consequences of individual consumption decisions on water resources contributes to the adoption of unsustainable living patterns. One subsidy for consumer awareness is to estimate the Water Footprint, that is, to measure the amount of water needed according to different lifestyles. In order to evaluate the food consumption patterns of the Brazilian population and highlight their impacts through the Water Footprints a quantitative research was carried out applying Factorial Analysis to POF microdata from 2016/17. The results allowed us to identify spatial differences, however, the pattern associated with the typical Brazilian diet, without animal protein, is the most homogeneous among the regions.
