According to a 2002 study conducted by Restaurants and Institutions Magazine, “despite the economy’s decline in recent months, 64% say they plan to dine out with the same frequency in 2002 as 2001. Casual dining is the winner, posting the largest increase with 20% dining there more often than in 2001.
Almost 60 percent of individuals consume a commercially prepared lunch at least once a week. Close to one-quarter consume a commercially prepared lunch five or more times per week. (NRA Meal Consumption Behavior.)
