Results: Supermarket sweets: Average grocery shopper spends $67 a week on processed foods

The average American spends $67 on processed foods every week, according to a recent survey. The poll asked 2,000 respondents about their experiences with buying both “natural” and “processed” items at the grocery store and found that the average weekly grocery bill costs people $98.50. Of this, the average person believes that only 32 percent of their diet contains all-natural ingredients. When asked to choose between convenient processed food and harder-to-source natural food, one in four (25%) chose the former — but one in three (34%) said they’d choose the latter. -StudyFinds.org
