Ocala, FL (PressExposure) February 19, 2010 -- The future of eating lies in numbers. A new study by the NPD Group shows that behaviors related to aging will have an impact on eating patterns in just a few years.
"A Look Into The Future of Eating," NPD's food industry market research, shows that age dynamics, population growth, and eating patterns will affect what and how people choose to eat. The top five foods expected to increase in the next decade are salty snacks, easy-to-make meals, meat entrees, sweet snacks and desserts, and microwaveable breakfasts. The forecast shows that Generation Y and future children under 10 be main contributors to some or all of these food groups.
