Poll Reveals Indecisiveness in Choosing DinnerA poll of 2,000 adults reveals that the average person spends 43 minutes per week deciding what to have for dinner. Dinner is the most challenging decision for 57% of respondents. The top reasons for this indecision include a lack of inspiration, difficulty finding the right recipes, and having too many choices. 30% of people have even chosen a meal, only to realize they don't have the necessary ingredients. 10% of respondents admit to having daily debates with their partners about what to have for dinner. The research was commissioned by Dolmio, who is launching a Drive-Thru at Sandbach Services on the M6 and Dinner Collection Points in London's busiest train stations to help settle dinner debates by providing ready-to-cook meals to commuters and travelers.
