Almost 75 percent of millennial moms who own a tablet use it while cooking, and nearly half of these tablet users have shared a recipe on the device via social media. Moms with children at home are especially likely to use social media in the kitchen, with 71 percent following brand and store accounts for specials and sale information. That’s compared to 57 percent of moms without kids at home.
However, in-store mobile use has a way to go to catch up.
