Beach Preferences: While 24% of chip fans say California has the best beaches in the U.S., just 10% of ice cream fans say the same.
Online Clothing Purchases: Those who prefer cookies are nine percentage points more likely than those who prefer French fries to purchase clothes and accessories online.
Takeout Motivation: French fry fans are seven percentage points more likely than chip fans to order takeout from their favorite local place for dinner after having a stressful day at work (35% vs 28%).
Grocery Delivery: Ice cream fans are 17 percentage points more likely than chip fans to use a grocery retailer’s delivery service (47% vs 30%).
Surfing Experience: While 31% of cookie fans have gone surfing before, just 21% of ice cream fans say the same.
