Introduction: The increase in obesity is related to changes in the pattern of acquisition and consumption of ultra-processed food products to the detriment of fresh and minimally processed foods. The objective of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of obesity in a small city and to evaluate the food products acquired by individuals with obesity according to the degree of processing. Methods: Analytical cross-sectional study divided into two stages. In the first stage, a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 533 individuals was investigated. 60 individuals were selected for the second stage, in which determinants of the nutritional profile were investigated, such as the acquisition of food and expenditure on food. Results: In the first stage, a prevalence of 30.39% of obesity was found. In the second stage, there was no significant difference between the acquisition of food by the degree of processing. More than 18% of respondents reported skipping breakfast and almost 22% reported having lunch at work. There were no differences in total spending, by place of purchase and in the proportion of spending on food in relation to family income and obesity categories. Conclusions: The prevalence of obesity in the studied district is high, considering its population. We suggest that this prevalence may be influenced by the acquisition of ultra-processed foods, food outside the home and omission of breakfast.
