The takeaway generation who order pizza 10 times a month

Almost 1 in 10 young adults admits to eating at least one takeaway a day

"Research by insurance giant Aviva found Millenials - those aged 18-35 - are eating five times the number of takeaways as those over 55. Their takeaway of choice is a pizza while looking at the population as a whole, fish and chips comes out on top.

Parents with children under 18 also admit to eating takeaways and fast food more regularly than the average UK adult. Unsurprisingly, full time workers order more than double the number of takeaways - eight - compared to the three of those who do not work.

Aviva's data shows half of the population - 48percent - are already overweight or obese."
