Uber has released its second annual Uber Eats Cravings Report, revealing new details about Canadian eaters’ food ordering habits.
Specifically, the report breaks down some statistics on ordering trends during the COVID-19 pandemic, such as what special instructions eaters are leaving.
For instance, the company says Alberta seems to have the “pickiest” eaters in Canada, as they add special instructions to their orders more than any other province. Conversely, Nova Scotians “hardly ever” add special instructions, according to Uber.
Meanwhile, Quebec and Manitoba eaters say “please” and “‘thank you” the most in their instructions.
Additionally, more than 50 percent of overall Canadian Uber Eats orders contain these words, versus 40 percent in the U.S.
- In terms of specific requests, here are most popular in Canada:
- Extra sauce
- No onion
- No tomato
- Spicy
- No cheese
- Extra spicy
- Well done
- Sauce on the side
- Extra mayo
In particular, “extra sauce,” “extra cheese,” “extra onion,” and “no lettuce” requests have increased the most, while requests for “gluten free,” “sauce on side” and “dressing on the side” have decreased. Further, the most common items that eaters wanted removed from their orders were onions, tomatoes, ice, cheese and bacon. On the other hand, the most popular “extra” items include sauce, spice, pickles, mayo and cheese.
Here’s a breakdown of popular delivery requests province and/or key markets:
