Acesso em: 01 ago. 2023.1542-8044http://www.repositorio.ufop.br/jspui/handle/123456789/17519This research online aimed to evaluate the consumers’ intention to cook at home and purchase food away from home after the COVID- 19 lockdown in Brazil. Of the 970 participants, 84.0% reported being afraid of contracting COVID-19 in food service establishments and 97.2% were in social distancing. Most of the participants intended never or rarely to buy food by delivery/take away/drive-thru and eat out. Moreover, 73.3%, 60.0%, 60.7%, and 50.5% of the participants intended daily to cook breakfast, morning, afternoon, and evening snacks, respectively. A significant association was observed between fear of contracting COVID-19, and level of social distan- cing and the consumers’ intention to cook some meals (p < 0.05), to purchase some meals using ordering food services (p < 0.05) and to eat out (p < 0.01). Therefore, the fear of contracting COVID-19 and social distancing seems to affect the intention to cook and to purchase food after lockdown.en-USrestritoRestaurantsFood deliverySARS-Cov-2PandemicCconsumer behaviorArtigo publicado em periodicohttps://www.tandfonline.com/doi/epdf/10.1080/15428052.2022.2104772?needAccess=true&role=buttonhttps://doi.org/10.1080/15428052.2022.2104772
