Percent of adults who go to a fast food restaurant 2 or more times per week.
Why is this important?
Fast food is a part of the American diet and has been associated with increased intake of calories, fat, sugar, and sodium. Time, financial resources, price, and availability influence fast food consumption. Eating too much fast food can increase the risk of developing serious health conditions like obesity and heart disease. While some chains have added healthier options, eating out is typically not the healthiest choice.
