Food Programming
Luke PowersReference SpecialistDelaware County District Library
Why Food Programming?• Between 1965 and 1992, home food
preparation fell steadily as eating out consistently increased.
• Although this trend seems to have leveled off since 1992, still only about half of all Americans cook at home on any given day.
• People who frequently cook meals at home eat healthier and consume fewer calories than those who cook less.
• The USDA and other organizations are encouraging Americans to get back into the kitchen (and to bring their kids with them).
• Plus it’s really fun!
