Isn't a typical grocery store trip more than 10 minutes of walking? This seems pretty hard to believe.
As others have pointed out
This data is probably excluding things like walking around work or grocery shopping and looking at just walking/bicycling to get from point A to point B in lieu of cars or trains. They explicitly use the term "active transportation" here.
Walking where I live has an LD50 of like 40 minutes.
The survey seems like it's only concerned with walking when it's a means of transportation
what kinda god fearing american would go to the grocerie every week
Yo, live in NY. Buy fresh every week. Not enough room to store enough at home so the store itself is your pantry/fridge.
live in wiscosin. own 2 chest freezers in addition to a full size standing fridge. venture to the grocery store once every 3 weeks. buy two shopping carts full every time
How do you deal with seasonal fruits and veggies? Freeze everything that doesn't last? I would hate the logistics of that, cause I often get ideas for meals while looking at whats cheap and good at the moment.
no true red blooded american eats "seasonal fruits and vegetables" is that some kinda DEI?
but actually in practice yeah its mass freezing bulk items they got on discount, imagine the meal planning starting with "what's in the freezer" over "what's cheap at the grocer"
I buy mostly fresh ingredients, so going weekly works best.
Most Americans drive to the grocery store
Yeah, I meant walking around inside the store itself.
its not continuous. you stop and browse and so on
So like, me stopping to look at mushrooms on tbeground fucks up my continuous walking
Grocery pickup is free in most places and delivery is insanely popular.
