Abstract

The purpose of this study was to analyze take-out and delivery food consumption according to the food-related lifestyle of adolescents. This study used secondary data from the 2019 Consumer Behavior Survey for Food (CBSF) performed by the Korea Rural Economic Institute. A survey was conducted from June 5 to August 11, 2019. A total of 610 responses were used for the final analysis (36.6% middle school students, 63.4% high school students). Data analysis were performed by using descriptive analysis, factor analysis, cluster analysis, and one-way ANOVA. As a result of cluster analysis, this study classified adolescents’ food-related lifestyle into three groups: convenience-seeking group, taste-seeking group, and high interest in the food-related lifestyle group. The results showed that adolescents use delivery and take-out to eat delicious food, and the average monthly meal delivery and take-out expenditures of taste-seeking groups were significantly high. This study offers the basis for proposing a dietary education program for adolescents.
