Answer to Question 1

Households with incomes below 20,000 a year spend about 1,400 per capita on food, buying more white bread, bacon, pork chops, luncheon meats, and eggs per person than the U.S. average. On the other end of the socioeconomic spectrum, households with incomes more than 100,000 annually spend over 4,725 on food, with above-average purchases in almost every category, especially expensive cuts of beef, lamb, fresh fish and seafood, dairy products, biscuits/rolls, fruits, prepared salads, nuts, and snack foods. Upscale consumers are more likely to be exposed to unique culinary ideas when dining out in trendy full-service restaurants and to be willing to pay for new or unusual food items.
