Fresh fruit is not only the top snack food consumed in America, it is also one of the fastest growing, according to new snacking research from The NPD Group, Port Washington, which found that growing concerns about health and eating right are contributors to the increasing popularity of fruit as a snack.

One of the reasons that fruit holds the top snack position is that it’s eaten throughout the day, resulting in its inclusion in more snack occasions than other foods. During the two-year period ending March 2012, fresh fruit was consumed as a snack in 10 more snack occasions a year than chocolate, the next top snack food, and 25 more occasions a year than potato chips, the third most popular snack food.
