Excerpt from Food Marketing in West Germany: Developments, Prospects for 1980, Significance for U. S. Exports Increasingly affluent German families are buying higher quality and more expensive foods. They are eating a greater variety of foods and are becoming more selective in food shopping. Sales of processed food are rising about twice as fast as total food expenditures, while sales of most convenience foods and numbers of meals eaten away from home are increasing even more rapidly.
