Overall, it is evident that junk food consumption has consistently decreased as people get older, where men consuming slightly more than women.
In the younger age group, people tend to consume junk food at rates of approximately 16%-17%, which is remarkably the highest across all age categories for both genders. Then, this figure dramatically drops in the 35-49 age bracket, almost halving with nearly 10% and 9% of men and women’s calorie consumption, respectively.
As the demographic shifts to the 50-64 age range, the comsumption remains consistent at roughly 9% regardless of gender. Finally, when individuals turned to the age of 65 and above, they start to cut off their daily calorie ingestion, with around 4% for men and 3% for women.
