Answer:

Americans eat out multiple times a week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Those who have a habit of eating out are also at greater risk of being overweight. This is the conclusion of a study by the School of Public Health of the University of São Paulo (USP), which also showed that the variety of foods consumed in fat-rich restaurants and eateries is associated with a higher rate of hypertension.

With the hustle and bustle of everyday life, it is very common for Americans to eat outside frequently and end up consuming high-fat and salt foods in restaurants and eateries. This habit has contributed to the American population being heavier than the population of other countries.
