The Covid-19 pandemic led to lockdowns in several parts of the world and, hence,
changed some daily habits, including social interactions, the ability to perform
sports, and-possibly-diet. The Italian government established and promulgated
lockdown policies on 9 March 2020. We aim at assessing the effects of
Covid-19-induced confinement policies on self-reported food consumption of
self-selected Italians by means of a questionnaire that was created and diffused
by the Internet. Nearly half, i.e., 49.6% of responders did not substantially
modify their diet during the lockdown; however, 46.1% of them reported that they
were eating more during confinement, and 19.5% gained weight. In particular, we
report an increase in "comfort food" consumption, notably chocolate, ice-cream,
and desserts (42.5%) and salty snacks (23.5%). In addition, 42.7% percent of this
cohort attributed this increase to higher anxiety levels. Related to this, 36.8%
of responders reported a decrease in alcohol consumption, even though 10.1% of
them reported an increase. Interestingly, 21.2% of responders increased their
consumption of fresh fruit and vegetables. Only 33.5% of those who declared
decreased consumption attributed this change of diet to lower availability and
ease of purchasing such items. Equally interesting, over half of responders,
i.e., 56.2%, admitted that fruit and vegetables did not appeal to them while in
lockdown. Purchases of ready-made meals were reduced by nearly 50%. Future
large-scale similar studies should be undertaken worldwide and will help public
health authorities shape their reactions to future, unavoidable pandemics.
