Abstract

This study examines the effect of sociodemographic and economic factors on food away from home (FAFH) expenditures by meal occasion. Results generally suggest that Western, smaller, white, higher income households without children and with a higher number of earners spend more on breakfast away from home than do others. Larger households with higher number of earners and headed by an individual with a high school degree and of other race spend more on lunch away from home than do others. White, better educated, higher income households with higher number of earners and without children spend more on dinner away from home than do others. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
