The chart shows how frequently people in the USA ate fast food in restaurants between 2003 and 2013.

The bar chart describes how often individuals in America consumed fast food at restaurants in 2003, 2006 and 2013. Those who never dined in them and who dined in them every day accounted for less than a tenth of all people in the US.

In all three years, over a half of these people ate in these restaurants once a week, or once or twice a month. The percentage of those who dined in them once a week increased to a third of all Americans in 2006, before falling to 27% in 2013. In contrast, the proportion of those who visited these restaurants once or twice a month dropped to a quarter in 2006, but rose to slightly over a third in 2013.

Americans who ate fast food at restaurants several times a week constituted around 16% of the US population in both 2003 and 2013, and a larger percentage (one fifth) in 2006. Those who dined in these restaurants a few times a year represented similar percentages (approximately 15%) in all three years.

In sum, the largest groups of diners at fast food restaurants consisted of those who ate in them once a week in 2003 and 2006, but comprised those who did so once or twice a month in 2013.
