When
you ask a Millennial, What’s for Dinner, they are not sure but the one thing
that they are sure of is that like to try food from new points of
differentiation everything from food trucks, meal kits, Munchery chef meals
delivered, kiosk, carts, farm stands as discovery and authenticity guide the
day according to Tacoma, WA based Foodservice
Solutions® Grocerant Guru®, Steven Johnson.
While
our own Grocerant Guru® coined the term Complexity Free Food as
regular reader of this blog know. The NPD Group reports that for U.S.
restaurants and foodservice outlets, Millennials as a group currently represent
about 14.5 billion visits and $96 billion in spending, which is 23% of total
restaurant spend.
Restaurants
are befuddled by according to NPD as “Older
Millennials, ages 25-34, who are more likely to have families, have cut back
the most on restaurant visits, making 50 fewer visits per person over the past
several years, according to the report. Younger Millennials, those who are
18-24 years old, made 33 fewer visits per person. Annual per capita restaurant
spend for younger Millennials is $1,240, which is down $146 per person compared
to their spending in 2007, and older Millennials’ annual per capita spend is
$1,369, down $213 per person.”
Millennials
feel better about cooking at home because they consider it healthier and it
tastes better than what they can get away-from-home however one problem they do
not cook from scratch. In fact as
regular readers of this blog know 83% of meals prepared at home by Millennials
include at least one grocerant niche Ready-2-Eat or Heat-N-Eat meal component. My
