Summary/Abstract: In Italy, during the pandemic crises caused by Covid-19 (CoronaVirus Disease-2019), the foodstuff sector claimed its central role again in the economic chain of the country, operating as an essential activity for the maintenance of a safety status at a social level. In this study we will analyse the consumption of food products during this unusual period, emphasizing the categories which have undergone substantial increases or decreases. Moreover, we will try to project a consume scenario for the future, when the health situation will revert to normal.
