Report Overview

Consumer Insights on Snacking & Mealtime Habits: 2022

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed many aspects of consumer behavior and daily life, with more people changing their routine to include remote work and/or fewer after work or extracurricular activities. Increasingly, working a few feet from their kitchens and spending less time on-the-go has upended how many people eat.

Opportunities exist in snack products that are convenient and have indulgent qualities while also incorporating a health halo. Proximity to the home kitchen, increased home cooking habits, changes in the level of activity away from home are key factors that play into changing mealtime consumption trends. The differences in mealtime habits across demographic groups points to which consumers are open to new foods, new packaging, and/or new modes of consumption.
