A survey conducted in 2020 revealed that 10 percent of the respondents from households without any children in the United Kingdom (UK) always checked the recommended daily amount when buying food, compared to seven percent of respondents who lived with two children. A share of 37 percent of the respondents from households with four children or more stated they never looked at the recommended daily amount of the food they were buying.
