This article examines the impact of socio‐economic and demographic factors on individual intake of saturated fat and cholesterol from away‐from‐home and at‐home markets. Factors that significantly affect saturated fat intake in both away from home and at home markets are urbanization, region, race, diet status, age, and income. Urbanization, race, ethnicity, sex, household size, age, date of consumption, and income affect cholesterol intake at home.
