DESCRIPTION
What is the Good Food Karma Index? The Good Food Karma Index is Australia’s only analysis of the food consumption purchasing patterns of Australians and their relationship with food on a 20 dimensional index. The Good Food Karma Index is an individually calculated score which incorporates a person’s food behaviour and attitudes with national datasets and social data to give each Australian an overall Good Food Karma rating. The higher the number, the better a person’s ‘Good Food Karma’. Here are the top results across the nation featuring the relationship Australians have with the food they eat: The more educated Australians are, the more dependent they are on chocolate. The average Australian will travel 16km for a fast food fix. 13% of Australians think bacon is a superfood. For 3 in 5 Australians (61%), their everyday emotions dictate what they eat or drink. 3 in 10 Australians (27%) say they need chocolate every day. 2 in 5 Australians (40%) skip breakfast at least once a week, and half this number (20%) skip breakfast most days. 4 in 5 Australians (82%) would rather eat their favourite meal than watch their favourite TV show. Of meals consumed at home, over one third of Australians (36%) eat most of their meals on the sofa while watching TV. 9 in 10 Australians (94%) don’t have just one favourite food. 2 in 5 Australians (39%) admit that they get late-night take-away (after 10pm) when they’re really hungry. More than half (56%) avoid it at all costs, and 6% think it’s awesome. Top 5 Junk Food Traps: Australians are most likely to buy junk food when they’re in a rush (78%), really hungry (72%), tired (64%), have a discount coupon (61%) or see the junk food on special (59%). 3 in 5 Australians (62%) regularly do not feel confident with their body. 1 in 4 Australians (24%) have unbuttoned their pants during a meal and then continued eating. 1 in 4 (25%) Australians do their food shopping ad-hoc and as needed. Over half of Australians (54%) go down the health food aisle as part of their weekly shop. For 1 in 3 (31%) of Australians, chocolate, rather than kale, is their chosen ‘superfood’. 91% of Australians are able to correctly identify silverbeet. Australians use an average of 8.5 squares of toilet paper each time they go to the toilet. 1 in 8 Australians (12%) use a fibre supplement every day. 3 in 10 Australians (29%) hear their stomach grumble 2 or more times per day.TRANSCRIPT
