Americans enjoy one of the most bountiful and affordable food supplies in the world. Yet, with this abundance comes overconsumption of total fat, saturated fat, and cholesterol. Solutions begin with understanding consumer behavior and the factors that influence food choices. ERS examines all aspects of American food choices: what we eat, where we eat it, why we eat it, what effect these choices have for Americas farmers, and what might be the health consequences of those choices.
