Survey reveals America’s snacking habits

  • 29 days ago
The average American skips about three meals per week, according to new research.

A survey of 2,000 U.S. adults, conducted by Talker Research on behalf of Breakstone’s, revealed only 22% say that they never skip meals, compared with 29% who admit they do so every single day of the week.

Results also found that Americans aren’t just missing meals, they’re also forgetting what they are actually consuming. The average respondent can only remember barely half (57%) of everything they ate over the last three days.

Still, Americans average three snacks per day. Those range from chips (57%), to fruit (56%) and cheese (46%). Others find themselves snacking on crackers (43%), cookies (41%) and ice cream (36%).
