That is pretty astonishing given 10% of Americans use semaglutide / tirzepitide.

> Spending on savory snacks dropped by about 10%, with similarly large decreases in sweets, baked goods and cookies. Even staples like bread, meat and eggs declined.

I can't read the paper (paywall), but that means something like the 10% of Americans who are on it must switch to purchasing almost no junk food.

It's the change for households where at least one person is taking it, not the entire population. So the effect size doesn't seem that large considering
