Sodium
and saturated fat are both extremely common in typical

dinners.

the pie charts, 43% of
sodium
is consumed at dinner time
as well as
37% saturated fat, but just 23% of added
sugar
is found in
American
dinners. An
American
lunch is made up of almost a third
sodium
, more than a quarter saturated fat, and about a fifth added
sugar
. Breakfasts contain the least amount of these potentially unhealthy ingredients, at 14%
sodium
and 16% for both saturated fat and added
sugar
. The figures for snacks look quite different. These are overwhelmingly comprised of added
sugar
, at a staggering 42%. These foods
also
contain 14%
sodium
and 21% saturated fat.
