Content: It may not be the multitasking aspect of eating that affects health, but rather the specific patterns of eating, other activities, and food choices. The ERS and National Cancer Institute survey supplement also included queries about time spent grocery shopping and preparing meals, and whether respondents received SNAP assistance (formerly known as food stamps) or school-provided meals. All of these responses provide a rich data source for researchers to investigate Americans’ eating patterns. More information can be found in our report, How Much Time Do Americans Spend on Food? and at http://ers.usda.gov/Data/ATUS/
