The bar graph displays the total percentage of Americans eating in fast food restaurants measured in six types of frequencies, including every day, several times a week, once a week, once or twice a month, a few times a year, and never in the year periods of 2003, 2006, and 2013.
First of all, once a week emerged as the highest contributor in 2003 with 32% of the total, while every day was represented as the lowest contributor in 2003, accounting for 4% of the total. Similarly, 2003 and 2006 had the largest allocations, and smallest allocations within the same categories. It is evident that 2006 had an increase of 2% from the figure recorded in 2003 for the category of once a week. However, there was a small drop of 2% in 2006 from the percentage measured in 2003 for the category of every day.
Conversely, once or twice a month had the largest percentage in 2013 with 33%, while every day was recorded the smallest percentage in 2013 accounting for 3%. Both 2013, and 2006 shared the same proportions in the categories of every day, and never with 3%, and 4% respectively. The bar graph also showed that 2006, and 2013 had the same percentage recorded in the category of a few times a year with 15%.
In conclusion, the once a week had the largest allocation for most of time periods, except 2013. 2013 had the the highest percentage recorded in the category of once or twice a month. Also, three time periods shared the same smallest allocations in the category of everyday.
