According to a Nationwide Retirement Institute survey, inflation is becoming a growing problem among Americans when it comes to purchasing food.
The new research claims that “nearly a quarter of young people skipped meals or didn’t buy groceries because of high inflation.”
The study goes on to claim:
Over the last 12 months, nearly two in five American households (40%) received food or goods from a food bank (22% for Millennials), and the same amount (17%) stopped buying healthier foods (organic or high-priced healthy foods). Nearly one in five Americans (18%) say they skipped meals or didn’t buy groceries due to high inflation (including 28% of Gen Z and 23% of millennials).
