Americans' confidence that food sold at most grocery stores is safe to eat has fallen to its lowest level Gallup has recorded, with 65% now very or somewhat confident. That is down from 73% last year and 72% in 2024, and well below the 81% recorded in 2019. Alongside declining confidence in grocery store food safety, Americans have become less confident in the federal government's ability to ensure the safety of the U.S. food supply.
