Party-Size Bags of Variety Chocolate Black Forest Ham âThe most-popular foods and beverages of 2020 underscore how our customers not only adapted to the challenges of this unique year but embraced cooking and eating at home as part of their new routine,â said Stuart Aitken, Kroger’s chief merchant. âAs many of our customers transitioned to working from home and virtual schoolrooms this year, coffee, fresh deli meat and artisan bread emerged as go-to staples for elevated breakfast and lunch routines, while zero-calorie soft drinks, unique potato chip flavours, wine and chocolate stood out as comfort-food favourites. Fresh ground beef, premium buns and shredded cheese also rose in popularity as our customers recreated their favourite restaurant-style burgers at home.â
