Junk food: the American wake-up call

As the birthplace of a famous brand known for its yellow “M,” the United States and its citizens are becoming aware of the risks associated with consuming junk food. According to the latest surveys, two out of five U.S. adults are obese, meaning 40% of the population! What’s more, the American obesity rate has continued to rise with an increase of 6% of the population in the past 10 years. More than a third of young Americans aged 2 to 19 eat in a fast food restaurant every day. Even more surprisingly, 12.4% of this age group’s calorie intake comes from junk food. Such data highlights the importance of raising public awareness on the dangers of junk food and the benefits of a healthy and balanced diet.

With that being said, the stark wake-up call has gradually led to more awareness concerning the need for healthy and balanced eating. As a result, Americans are increasingly opting for organic food products and cooking methods that factor in nutrition as well as taste.

The first sign of this growing awareness was manifested by then-First Lady Michelle Obama in October 2006, when she organized a gardening day for pupils from a Washington school right in her own vegetable garden at the White House. Numerous awareness-raising campaigns have been run to help Americans recognize their eating habits and change them for the better. This recent wake-up call has led many large fast food chains to adapt their menus by including more organic, balanced meals with a reduced salt or fat content. Large chain restaurants have also implemented various action plans: abandoning GMOs, sourcing organic products from local agriculture, and committing to reducing animal suffering.

Thus, although the United states is still many reforms away from a nationwide boost in healthy eating and an associated decline in the obesity rate (and diseases generated by unhealthy eating), Americans are manifesting a growing concern for what is in their food.
