A new Gallup poll finds more Americans are heading back to their local grocery stores and restaurants as the COVID-19 pandemic fades.

Gallup reported Wednesday that 37% of U.S. adults say they are shopping in person for groceries at least once a week, up six percentage points from last year.

The poll found that 83% of Americans eat out at least once a month, nine points higher than last year.

At the same time, 28% of respondents say they order groceries online at least monthly, up five points from a year ago.

“Despite technological advances and changes resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, most Americans continue to get their food by going to stores in person more often than any other way,” Gallup reported.
