Dairy

摘要

Americans are consuming dairy foods at a rate never seen before, according to the US Department of Agriculture's Economic Research Service. For some categories, this was true even before the COVID-19 pandemic. New data on annualized per capita consumption identify butter, cheese and yogurt as the key drivers of dairy's growth, which reached a record high in 2019. Other categories, namely fluid milk, which had been declining significantly during the past two decades, experienced a boom in retail sales during stay-at-home orders and show no signs of goinq back into a decline.
