    i like how all the shit they mention as being "outpaced" by millenial spending on groceries are not a daily, critical expense.

    restaurants, travel, apparel, and even fitness.

    fucking A i hope grocery spending outpaces fitness, wtf.

    also, the sawdust-for-brains they interview equivocates millennials with teens while characterizing the decision to spend more on groceries as pursuing specialty/high quality ingredients for clout on social media.

    which, let's pretend that food prices haven't shot up like crazy in the last 4 years: even if younger-ish people are buying above-average quality ingredients to prepare food at home, it's probably because we watched our genX and boomer elders eat the cheapo sugar-salt capitalist food system trash and contract debilitating metabolic disorders paired with heart disease.
