You know how much money you spend on solid food , but just where does that money go once you spend it ? The solution , right down to the fraction of the centime , is here .
TheUSDA has released an update toits “ intellectual nourishment dollar ” equipment failure — a section of a individual clam into the exact amount every link in the foresighted Sir Ernst Boris Chain of people who bring you your food for thought gets . So what ’s new in the latest clam compared tolast year ’s update ? There ’s a series of changes , all of which indicate a trend towards the same dot : America is cooking for itself less and less .
The grounds for America ’s declining cooking habits lies in which segments increased and decrease their share of the food dollar . The biggest increase was in the food service slice . Meanwhile , actual husbandry production cost remained precisely static . The family that dropped off to make elbow room for the gain in food divine service costs were n’t on the farm — the biggest drop came in promotion , transportation , and sweeping trades , which are all costs that would be associated mostly with shop at foodstuff stores .
Looking at other data backs up this idea . 2014 wasalso the year Americans crossedthe threshold into spending more money eating out than eating at home . The trend seems to show no signs of slow down .
