Teens dig Starbucks and Chick-fil-A, says super dope survey of teenagers
A natural part of getting older is not understanding why kids don’t like all the same things you do. Grasping what teenagers dig is difficult, which is why studies like the Piper Jaffray Taking Stock With Teens Survey are so helpful. There’s some familiar faces in the study–Nike and American Eagle are as popular as ever, apparently–while other statistics reveal the proliferation of online culture, with Netflix and YouTube both surpassing cable TV as the preferred source of entertainment.
It seems filling Netflix with all those Chopped and Good Eats “collections” still isn’t inspiring kids to cook, however. For upper-income teens, restaurants represented 23 percent of their overall spending, with the survey noting that “teens will frequent a restaurant almost three times for every time they fill up their gas tank.”
