More than 90% of supermarkets in the United States sell prepared (ready-to-eat) foods, yet little is known about their nutritional value. The nutritional profile of shop prepared foods was compared to that of supermarket packaged foods and restaurant foods in this study, which also looked at purchasing tendencies.

In the US, poor nutrition is one of the biggest preventable causes of death .One-third of daily caloric consumption in the United States comes from prepared foods, which form a significant part of the country's diet. Prepared foods are foods that are created ready-to-eat outside the home and are typically consumed there or shortly after purchase. Over the past few decades, prepared food sales have expanded and now account for the majority of food sales in the United States. Foods that have been prepared raise concerns for public health because they frequently contain

This study looked at the variety of prepared foods sold by 2 supermarket chains between 2015 and 2019 to identify the availability of prepared foods with time. The chains had about 1,200 locations in the Southeast, Mid-Atlantic, and Northeast regions of the United States. The chains are standard supermarkets (not specialty or discount shops) with locations in rural, suburban, and urban areas with populations that are demographically similar to those of the United States as a whole.15The establishments take part in Guiding Stars, a nutrition programme for shelf tags.

Although the rate of increase decreased later on, the variety of prepared foods offered (i.e., available for purchase) at the supermarkets more than doubled from 1,930 goods in July 2015 to 4,113 foods in January 2019.From 3.1% of all food items in 2015 to 6.4% in 2019, the proportion of various food offers that were prepared foods also roughly doubled. Nutrients per transaction purchased from prepared foods in supermarkets increased somewhat from April 2015.

The availability of prepared foods for purchase has increased significantly over time, whereas the amount of calories and minerals these foods contain has only slightly increased, according to a research of prepared foods sold in 2 major U.S. supermarket chains. The nutritional profiles of prepared foods bought from supermarkets were generally unhealthy, with 61% of prepared dinners and >90% of prepared bread and deli products being high in calories or containing at least one potentially dangerous component. The nutrient composition of prepared foods from supermarkets.

According to this study, supermarket prepared food selection has significantly increased over time, but sales of goods containing bad ingredients have only slightly increased. The nutritional content of cooked foods from supermarkets was often subpar and resembled that of restaurant fare. It is necessary to implement initiatives that promote shopping for wholesome prepared foods in supermarkets.
