1. New York City

Is it really a surprise that New York City tops the list of most gluttonous cities? With its population density, it makes sense that there would be an extremely high saturation of restaurants (both fast-food and full-service) across the five boroughs. While the rate of adult obesity in New York City is near the low end of the spectrum for this list, the city's consistently high scores in the other categories throughout the metropolitan area makes it the most gluttonous.

Grocery Stores: 4,750 (Brooklyn is the borough with the most stores)

Fast-Food Restaurants: 7,327

Full-Service Restaurants: 5,501

Adult Obesity Rate: 22.3%
