Trendy bites, top food picks and national favourites are revealed in SkipTheDishes' 2023 order trends
Just before we wrap up 2023, delivery app, SkipTheDishes has some interesting data to share about their order trends, which unpacks the most popular items, and that data also reveals the most expensive order of the year.
Top 5 biggest orders in 2023:
- Quebec: The most expensive order was $1,259.71 in Quebec, which included 55 sandwiches, 3 pizzas and - in true Canadian style - 7 orders of poutine
- British Columbia: Someone in BC spent $1060.50 on 15 bottles of liquor (including two bottles of Grey Goose…fancy!)
- Alberta: Someone in Alberta spent $921.61 on 36 plates of chicken… with 2 salads thrown in for good measure!
- Ontario: Someone in ON spent $789.50 on 70 tacos and 25 orders of chips with a combination of guac, salsa and horseradish cream - now that is a Mexican feast!
- Manitoba: Someone in MB spent $748 on 10 caesar salads, 10 beef ribs, 3 pickerel and 3 pasta dishes
"Releasing our annual ordering trends is one of our favorite times of the year! As a Canadian brand, we love digging deeper into the ordering habits of our communities across the country, and this year did not disappoint," said Melanie Fatouros-Richardson, Vice President, Communications & Government Relations at SkipTheDishes. "In 2023, Canadians took advantage of the growing categories available on Skip, and we're proud to serve customers coast to coast and save them time by bringing them more of what they love, right to their doorstep."
