Abstract

Recessions are typically associated with lower incomes, greater unemployment, and increases in free time. This article reviews how food buying and consumption changed in past recessions, and discusses how the COVID-19 related recession, which is atypical in terms of impacts on household incomes and savings rates, has affected food consumption behaviors.
