Parents have been turning to caffeine and snacks to get through the coronavirus pandemic

featured 1,011 participants between the ages of 18 and 80 in the United States. Market research company Greenwald & Associates gleaned insights on eating habits from survey-takers between April 8 and April 16, 2020. The results indicated that parents with children under the age of 18 may be turning to some unhealthy COVID-19-related coping mechanisms in the kitchen, including snacking between meals, heightened caffeine intake, and emotional eating.

Parents with underage kids are relying on caffeine during the pandemic. The survey found that "parents are much more likely to need caffeine with lunch in comparison to those without children." Only 15% of non-parent respondents consume caffeine at lunch, while 26% of parents said they relied on the noontime boost. 67% of parents said they consumed the stimulant in "multiple ways," as opposed to 55% of respondents without children.

A third of parents with young children said they "eat when they are feeling emotional," and the survey found that "parents are also less likely to feel satisfied by their food." Parents are also more pessimistic about "the average American's diet," with 22% of respondents with children saying they believe that US citizens' eating habits will grow "worse over the next decade."
