摘要

In the next decade and beyond, significant demographic changes--especially the rising number of elderly--will offer new challenges for the U.S. food industry. Elderly people generally eat lesser amounts than energy-burning teens and young adults. Today's elderly also dine out less frequently than their younger counterparts. If these eating and spending patterns continue and America's older population meets growth expectations, growth in real per capita food expenditures will likely stagnate. Analyses of food spending patterns in 1997 revealed that households with heads age 65-74 spent 41.44 dollar per capita weekly on food, more than the 36.21 dollar spent by households with heads age 75 and older but less than households with 45-64 year-old heads. Households with heads between age 65 and 74 spent more on cereal and cereal products, dairy products, poultry, and processed vegetables than other age groups, while the older elderly spent more on fruit and nonalcoholic beverages. Weekly away-from-homefood expenditures for households with heads age 6574 were 13.04 dollar per capita, less than all age groups except the older elderly and households headed by adults younger than 25.
