Socioeconomic factors associated with at-home and away-from-home catfish consumption in the United States

Article Abstract:

A research study to determine the socioeconomic factors influencing at-home (AH) and away-from-home (AFH) catfish consumption was conducted. Data from a nationwide survey of 3,600 households were analyzed using logit models. Results show that AH catfish consumption is associated with high income and educational attainment, black households and those belonging to the Protestant faith. AFH catfish consumption, while also associated with high income and educational level and Protestant households, is more prevalent among white households.

Changing food consumption patterns in East Asia: implications of the trend towards livestock products

Article Abstract:

The continued economic dynamism of East Asia affects the region's food consumption patterns. A study of seven East Asian economies shows an increasing demand for livestock products due to heightened preference among Asians to eat nontraditional, high-protein foods. Northeast Asia and Malaysia are predicted to need increased volumes of imports due to increased consumption on red meats. Increased imports of dairy products are seen as milk production is expected to post no significant increases within the region.

The mighty middle middles

Article Abstract:

The Conference Board reports that MiddleMiddles, the group composed of households which earn incomes of between $20,000 and $40,000, account for 33 percent of all U.S. households and now generate a huge portion of total disposable income. Once mortgage payments and taxes are extracted, the Yuppies command no more than ten percent, and maybe closer to five percent, of U.S. wealth. However, the MiddleMiddles now control 33 percent of $60 billion.
