According to a survey on food expenditure behavior conducted in 2018, more than 74 percent of Italian households living in the North-East of the country purchased the same quantity and quality of food in comparison with 2017. By contrast, 43.92 percent of those living in the South declared that the quantity and/or quality of the food they bought in 2018 was worse than one year before.
