And almost six in 10 say dinner is the hardest meal to make a decision on - with a lack of inspiration, or too much choice, cited as the top reasons for this indecision

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 study has found. 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.

And it would appear “food-min” is taking over our lives, as 42 per cent of indecisive Brits find themselves staring into the fridge for dinner ideas, while 48 per cent raid the cupboards for inspiration. The research was commissioned by Dolmio, as the brand launches a Drive-Thru at Sandbach Services on the M6 – the UK’s busiest service station – as well as Dinner Collection Points in London’s busiest train stations.

The study also found that, when it comes to indecision, 21 per cent believe their own lack of time to plan a meal is to blame – while 11 per cent struggle to find appealing recipes.
