Food Technology Magazine published their report in trends in the food
industry this month, which includes statistics indicating that the popularity of take-out and premade foods is on the
rise and that people perceive foods found in the refrigerated section of the supermarket as being healthier than
frozen foods. Health concerns are growing, but still only 32% of meals are made "from scratch" at home and
fewer than 20% of all meals are eaten at home - takeaway or homemade - are eaten at the table, with the whole family.
The
article (available as a PDF) is packed with fascinating statistics, but one of the lists is a clear indicator that
no matter what adults are saying and doing in the quest for a healthier diet, the most important age group is being
ignored: children.
