The bar chart compares how often Americans visited fast-
food
restaurants in 2003, 2006, and 2013.
It is clear that
in all three years, the majority of Americans either ate fast food
once a week
or once or twice a month. Additionally
, there was a slight decline in the frequency of fast food
consumption from 2003 to 2013.
In 2003, over 55% of American residents frequented fast food
restaurants either once a week
or once or twice a month, with approximately 31% choosing the former and 25% the latter. This
pattern remained consistent in both 2006 and 2013, with these two options continuing to be the most popular among the population. Notably, by 2013, a greater proportion—about 33%—preferred to eat fast food
once or twice a month. Meanwhile, the percentage of those who visited fast food
establishments once a week
decreased slightly, from around 31% in 2003 to approximately 28% in 2013. This
trend was also
evident in the percentages of those dining at fast food
outlets every day or several times a week
, suggesting a reduction in overall
fast food
consumption by 2013 compared to 2003.
Aside from the once-a-week
or once-or-twice-a-month visits, about 30% of individuals in the U.S. opted to visit fast food
restaurants several times a week
or a few times a year. A much smaller portion of the population, below 5% each year, either ate fast food
daily or never consumed it at all.Submitted by 645119931 on
