KC ranks sixth in the country for money spent on fast food

When I was wondering last year why the national burger chains suddenly seemed to be converging on Kansas City all at once, I never thought to look at the receipts of my fellow citizens.

But according to Bundle (see the full-size chart here), the proof lies in the purchases. The average Kansas City household ranks sixth in the country in the amount of money spent on fast food. Perhaps that’s why Missouri is angling to be one of the top 10 fattest states in the nation.
