Brits spend a total of 37 hours-a-year - nearly a full working week - trying to make up their minds on what to eat.

A poll, of 2,000 adults, found the typical person spends 43 minutes each week deliberating what to have - with dinner being the most challenging decision for 57 per cent. When it comes to this indecision, the top reasons include a lack of inspiration, the struggle to find the right recipes and the problem of too much choice. Three in 10 have even decided on a meal, only to find they didn’t have the necessary ingredients to make it happen.

Opening the doors to the Drive-Thru, TV and radio personality Sam Thompson said: “When it comes to that final meal of the day, I know the struggle is real. Though pasta is my go-to comfort meal whenever I’m feeling unsure. If you’re a penne fiend like me, carbonara is the one.” The study also found, when it comes to indecision, 21 per cent believe their own lack of time to plan is to blame, and 11 per cent aren’t able to find appealing recipes.
