GREELEY, Colo. (PRWEB)
October 26, 2022
Pound of Ground® Crumbles® of JBS USA, a leading global food company, released a new survey conducted by OnePoll describing the numerous challenges parents face while managing their households, especially at mealtime. The survey fielded 2,000 U.S. parents with school-aged children, as they returned to their routines for the academic year.
Results from the study detailed how parents manage busy schedules throughout the week, and ultimately how that impacts their behaviors towards dinner prep and planning. Overall, the survey illustrated the hurdles many parents face, particularly when trying to establish a routine.
As one respondent noted, they felt most in control of their home life when they “have a routine, and have things run smoothly at least most of the time.”
Notably, while Tuesday and Wednesday are when the greatest number of families eat dinner together (50% and 51%, respectively), it’s also when most families don’t have a plan for dinner (46% and 44%, respectively). As meal planning becomes progressively more difficult for the majority of parents throughout the week, many respondents said they turn to different techniques to simplify the process, from implementing a consistent menu (40%) to stocking up on common pantry items (39%).
“This survey is fascinating, as it illuminates parents’ need for simplified, convenient products that can help solve the ever-present hurdle of getting dinner on the table. More often than not, parents don’t have the time or the right ingredients on-hand for dinner, or they forget to thaw essential components,” said Heidi Meyer, creator of Pound of Ground® Crumbles® frozen uncooked ground beef.
The biggest challenges for getting dinner on the table, according to the survey respondents, are missing key ingredients (36%) and waiting on frozen meat to thaw (33%). Markedly, 76% of parents surveyed were likely to sometimes forget to take meat out of the freezer in time for dinner, and nearly half did so frequently.
“Leaning on pantry staples can help solve meal challenges and extending the way we think about the pantry to the freezer is a true game-changer,” said Meyer. “That’s what makes Pound of Ground® Crumbles® so unique – it’s a freezer staple that pours right into the pan from frozen. No defrosting, no thawing and no planning necessary.”
