Health and Price Influence Meat Choices in the U.S.
Primary Drivers of Meat Consumption Choices
In the U.S., health concerns coupled with price dynamics are at the forefront of consumers' meat choices. Despite many Americans reporting a decrease in red meat consumption, the underlying motivators stem primarily from personal health perspectives and the economic implications of meat prices.

- Price fluctuations influencing purchasing behavior
