    The answer to your question is food deserts.

      As of 2023, there are over 6,500 food deserts in the United States. The USDA estimates that 18.8 million people, or about 6.1% of the U.S. population, live in a food desert.

      For the vast majority of people, you can get whatever you want. We should do everything in our power to ensure as much of that 6% gets closer access to healthy food.
