Two out of three adults in American homes have changed their cooking and eating habits because of the economy, according to a survey conducted by Harris Interactive for Whole Foods Market.
According to the annual Food Shopping Trends Tracker, over half of us are eating dinner at home more often. And...37 percent are planning food shopping trips more carefully.
However, the survey found that...regardless of price...3 out of 4 people are not willing to compromise on food quality and organic and natural foods. But, they'd like to be able to get those foods within their budget.
Over half of those who have changed their food shopping practices say they are using more coupons. Half are more likely to comparison-shop and 45 percent are more likely to buy private label or grocery store brands.
Finally, of those who say they regularly cook at home, 54 percent say they have the home meals in order to save money. Twenty-two percent say they rarely or never home cook.
