"Immortal until they're not": Gen Z's picking snacks over meals

Kiwi’s eating habits seem to be changing. 

New research from Mondelez shows that almost half of Gen Z prefer snacking over dinner, and 40% skip breakfast in favour of a snack. 

On average 27% of people skip breakfast, 13% lower than the results in the study. 

Nutritionist Nikki Hart told Mike Hosking that we’re definitely seeing a change in behaviour, and it’s not necessarily a good one. 

She thinks that Covid changed how younger generations approached eating, as staying up later and online classes allow more opportunities to snack.
