Market Trends
- It is estimated that Americans eat one-third of their meals in public establishments (restaurants, hotels, cafeterias, institutions, and snack stands). Furthermore, families spend about 30% of their total food expenditures on food cooked outside of the home.
- The packaging found in food institutions comes in much larger quantities and is typically packaged based on price rather than convenience. There has been some movement to convenient packaging for spices & seasonings that are used in smaller quantities. For instance, the parsley, garlic salt, peppercorns, basil, and other flavor adding spices now come packaged in plastic containers with controlled dispensing closures. However, the salt and pepper are still likely to come in very large pouches.
