"Americans are now spending more money dining out than shopping for groceries," says Claes Fornell, ACSI chairman and founder. "Fast food restaurants appear to be capitalizing on this trend more than full-service restaurants, maintaining the lower prices and speedy service that has long defined the industry, while also appealing to health-conscious consumers via more diverse offerings and higher-quality ingredients."
