"Between 1960 and 1998, the average share of disposable personal income spent on total food by Americans, on average, fell from 17.0 to 10.1 percent, driven by a declining share of income spent on food at home."
In 2019, it was 9.5%, with modest decreases on spending for food at home and increases in spending on food away from home.
