What's driving young adults' food choices

Here are the seven main drivers of young adult food choices.

Exploration

  • Authentic global flavors/street foods
  • High-quality artisan foods or ingredients
  • Foods or beverages with a unique story

Health and wellness

  • Connecting socially with others
  • Exploring new ideas/expertise about healthy living

Better production
