Food Consumption Remains High Locally Residents til Hoke County have healthy appetites, it seems. During the course of a year they dispose of an impressive amount of food. Notwithstanding the general tendency to cut back to adjust to the rising cost of living, food consumption in the area continued at a high level in the past year, judging from the amount of money spent in that direction. During 1974. the figures indi cate. local residents consumed some 2N pounds of groceries a week per person. Although food prices shot up by about .10 percent throughout the country since 1972. according to the Department of Labor, there was no significant decline in the period in the amount of eating that was done. Such adjustments as were made were in kinds of food rather than in quantity. The figures show that whereas the average household in the United States, consisting of 2.4 persons, was spending S30.32 tor food in the latter part of 1972. its outlav rose to S40.05 last year, exclusive of alcoholic beverages. The tacts and figures are based upon data compiled by the Depart ment of Agriculture, the Bureau of Labor Statistics and other agencies, they show that the average Ameri can consumed, in the course of the year. 1K8 pounds of meat. 65 pounds of fish and poultry. 285 eggs. 12.^ pounds of potatoes. 247 pounds ol milk and cream, 85 pounds of processed fruits and vegetables and 107 pounds of wheat Hour, among other things. As to cost. the figures for Hoke Counts indicate that its food bill averaged S2.5lH) per household in ll)74. This includes eating at home and away from home. Families with big incomes spent more than this and those vsith below-average in comes and those living on farms, somewhat less. Throughout the nation as a whole, the average amount spent was $2,080 per household. Because of the higher prices, many families have made drastic changes in their bflying and cook ing habits. For one thing, they have cut dim n on the use of convenience foods and on dining out. As for meals at home, they are less elaborate than they used to be.
