2021 Food & Health Survey

2021 Food & Health Survey

The 2021 Food and Health Survey marks the 16th time the International Food Information Council (IFIC) has surveyed Americans to understand their perceptions, beliefs and behaviors around food and food purchasing decisions. This year’s survey continues an examination of issues related to health and nutrition, eating patterns, food production and food safety. It also explores timely issues such as the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on eating and shopping habits, viewpoints on environmental and social sustainability and shifting perspectives on what it means for a food or eating pattern to be “healthy.”
