This report presents the key findings from the Food and You 2 Wave 11 survey carried out in Scotland. The Food Standards Agency (FSA) has been running the survey in England, Wales and Northern Ireland since 2020. In Wave 11, Food Standards Scotland (FSS) collaborated with the FSA to enable a sample of consumers in Scotland to be included in the survey. Food and You 2 measures consumers’ self-reported knowledge, attitudes and behaviours related to food safety and other food issues amongst adults across the UK.
Fieldwork for Food and You 2 Wave 11 was conducted between 19 May and 7 August 2025. For Wave 11, a total of 1,555 adults (aged 16 years or over) from 1,091 households across Scotland completed the survey.
This report focuses on eating at home and food safety practices, food shopping and labelling, eating out and takeaways and food choices and other issues, such as confidence in food, food concerns, changes to eating habits and food-related behaviours and food allergies and intolerances.
