Consumers' eating habits are constantly evolving and the millennial population is paving the way.
According to a 2017 survey by Surverygoo, commissioned by Welch’s Global Ingredients Group, 92 percent of millennials (consumers between the ages of 18 and 35) are replacing full meals with snacks. Specifically, 26 percent of those surveyed eat a snack over a meal about four times a week.
This trend is only gaining momentum as more consumers adopt healthier lifestyles.
As snacking increases, the more diners are looking for grab-and-go options at restaurants and at grocery stores.
One of the most loved snacks on the market remains yogurt. Yogurt brands have been ahead of the curve when it comes to catering to those with dietary restrictions, which is more important in today's market than ever.
“Consumers want to eat in ways that address real dietary concerns, but they can’t do it alone. They need help from food manufacturers to offer products formulated with an eye towards food sensitivities and other specialized diets, and they need help from retailers to stock shelves with a proper assortment of foods that cater to a wider variety of consumer needs,” said Andrew Mandzy, Director, Strategic Insights, Nielsen.
