Quarterly Food-Away-From-Home Prices

Published by Economic Research Service, Department of Agriculture | Department of Agriculture | Catalog Last Checked: August 01, 2026 at 05:02 AM | Dataset Last Updated: August 20, 2019
The Quarterly Food-Away-From-Home Prices (QFAFHP) data set provides quarterly prices (not including taxes) for food away from home (FAFH) and alcohol, both at home and away from home. Food away from home is an integral component of the typical American diet and food budget; it also plays a key role in the nutrition and health of Americans. Data on variation in food prices over time and across regions allow researchers to estimate how price changes affect the demand for different products—such as through changes in quantities purchased or expenditures—and, to examine how changes in demand, in turn, affect nutritional and health outcomes.
