A bar chart that shows the mean percentage of calories from ultraprocessed food by age group in the U.S. from August 2021 to August 2023. Children ages 6 to 11 consume the highest at 64.8%, while adults 60 and up consume the lowest at 51.7%.
Data: CDC. Chart: Axios Visuals

American adults and kids got more than half of their daily calories from ultra-processed foods like hamburgers, pizza and sugary drinks between 2021 and 2023, Axios' Maya Goldman writes from new CDC data.

  • Sandwiches, including burgers, were the leading source of ultra-processed calories for both kids and adults.
