Vegan, Vegetarian, and Flexitarian Consumers, 2nd Edition

Industry Reports, United States

Report Overview

Vegan, Vegetarian, and Flexitarian Consumers, 2nd Edition

Increasing concerns about health, animal welfare, and the environment are causing more consumers to turn to plant-forward diets. Some consumers are abstaining from animal products by going vegan or vegetarian, but many more are simply reducing consumption of animal products with a flexitarian or semi-vegetarian diet.

The pandemic has expanded interest in healthy eating and lifestyles, and in turn led to growing awareness of plant-based eating. Additionally, Inflation and supply issues causing high meat and dairy prices make flexitarian or semi-vegetarian diets more appealing.
