Shopping Habits in the USA 16.02.2016

Milk and Eggs are two popular groceries competing with each other all over the world and states of the USA are not an exception.

In two states: New York and California Eggs come before Milk, while in other three – Texas, Florida and Illinois – Milk is more loved. In Florida even Bread comes before Eggs.

Bananas stay as the most preferred fruit in most states, being extremely fast eaten in Illinois.

Another fruit – Apple – is eaten in California and New York more often than in Texas or Florida. In New York Apples are even more popular than Bananas.

California loves avocados. It takes 8th place out of 10 while in other states no avocados appear in the Top 10 at all.

Carrots are in the Top 10 in Illinois and New York. Celery appears only in Illinois among the Top 10 groceries. Illinois seems to stand out with its unusual grocery shopping habits.

Potatoes take 6th place in Florida while four other states do not have potatoes among the Top 10 groceries added to a list.

What about meat? Is it evenly eaten in different states? The answer is no. Different states prefer different types of meat. So, Texas, New York and California eat Chicken as the most of the world, Illinois eats Bacon instead of Chicken and Florida loves both.

Regardless of the fact that butter takes the second place in dairy produce consumed in the USA butter is added to grocery lists only in New York and Texas.

Yogurt is in the Top in Illinois and California only.

Paper towels are in the Top 10 only in Texas. Very interesting why other states don’t take advantage of paper that often.

Toilet paper is also not that popular among different states. Only two states of five – Texas and Florida – add it to their lists among Top 10 products.
