The chart below show how frequently people in the USA ate in the fast food restaurants vetween 2003 and 2013.
The bar chart compares the frequency which is divided into five categories (every day, several times a week, once a week, once or twice a week, a few times a year and never) in terms of fast food consuming (measured in percentages) over the time period from 2003 to 2013.
Looking closely at the chart in detail, we can clearly see that the number of people who went to fast food restaurants once or several times a week fell throughout the period from 2003 to 2013, starting with around 31% and 17% respectively and finishing at around 28% and 16% respectively, although there was a minor increase between 2003 and 2006. The amount of those who acted more extremely (every day and never) also decreased over the same period, but less significantly, both changing by about 1%.
By contrast, after seeing a decrease during 2003 and 2006, the quantity of people who ate fast food once or twice a month showed a sharply upward trend between the following years, beginning with 25% in 2006, finally reaching around 33% in 2013 and overtaking that of people who ate more frequently in 2013. The percentage of people who consumed fast food a few times a year also rose during the same period from about 13% in 2003 to 15% in 2006 and 2013.
Overall, the frequency of fast food consuming peak in 2006. Currently, most people go to fast food restaurants once or twice a month, which might result from the awareness of healthy lifestyles.
