Q: In North America more than half are doing this more than once a week. What is it?
A: Eating out. Not cooking. No time and lack of ability for some.
Many because they don’t want to or don’t have time and many just don’t know how.
According to Statistics Canada, 54 per cent of Canadians eat out once a week or more, and 40 per cent of folks say they eat out for convenience, have no time to cook, or do not like/know how to cook.
For millennials, Fetterly says they likely don’t know how to make food if cooking wasn’t a big part of their lives growing up.
For kids who grew up in the ‘80s and ‘90s, there was a huge cultural emphasis on microwave meals, pre-packaged snacks and fast food.
