fried chicken 13.8%, The obesity prevalence based on BMI and WHR was 21.3% (95% Cl: 19.4, 23.2%)
and 33.2% (95% Cl: 0.7, 35.7), respectively. Fast food consumption was related to abdominal obesity
as WHR (OR: 1.46, 95% Cl: 1.11, 2.26), but was not related to general obesity as BMI (OR: 0.97, 95% Cl:
0.63, 1.52). Nowadays, the prevaling of both fast food consumption and obesity has increased.
