I am writing a report in which I have to forecast sales of juice and coffee. I want the title to be something along the lines 'Forecasting sales of consumer goods...', however, I do not think it sounds correct to refer to juice and coffee as consumer goods.
What would be more appropriate in this situation? I thought about food and beverages, but I do not like the sound of that in the title of a technical report.
EDIT
I also forecast sales of sandwiches, meaning that I am looking for a term that covers both juice, coffee, and sandwiches.

Consumer goods covers a lot of ground, if you are only focusing on juice and coffee, you would be disingenuous to title your paper consumer goods. Even using “breakfast beverages” is too broad for just juice and coffee.

@Jim I cannot think of a more specific term that covers both. I forgot to mention in my question that I also focus on sandwiches. I will update it now.

How did you decide on those three? Maybe the criteria you used will help you categorize them.
