Some interesting facts about the UK's weekly food spend per household, taken from Nimblefins website:

Average Food Costs
​The average annual food cost for a typical UK household was around £4,753 in 2018 (based on the average 2.4 people per household), including £255 spent on non-alcoholic drinks. The average weekly food cost for the typical UK household is £91, up 3% from 2017. (Note: "food" includes non-alcoholic drinks but not alcoholic drinks.) Food cost as a percentage of the average UK household budget has remained steady for over fifteen years.
On average, we spend about 66% of our food budget on meals and snacks prepared and eaten at home, and we spend 34% of our food costs on eating out. That is, we spend on average £3,151 on food for home and £1,602 on takeaways, restaurants, cafés, and snacks, as you can see in the table and chart below.
On an individual basis, we spend £1,980 per year per person on food, with £1,313 spent on groceries and £667 spent out (e.g., restaurants, takeaways, etc.).


Weekly:  
Food at Home  Per person: £25.30  Per household: £60.60
Food Out (e.g., restaurants, take away, etc.)   Per person: £12.80  Per household: £30.80

​Per Year:
Food at Home   Per person: £1,313   Per household: £3,152
Food Out (e.g., restaurants, take away, etc.)    Per person: £667   Per household: £1,602


So how does your weekly food budget compare?
