The bar chart illustrates the amount of money spent weekly on three various fast foods in the UK in 1900, dividing into three distinct levels. Furthermore, the line graph below shows how the consumption for pizza, fish and chips, and hamburger changed from 1970 to 1990.
Overall, high and average income groups spent large parts of their money on hamburgers, whereas low income groups preferred spending on fish and chips in 1990. From 1970 to 1990, the consumption of fish and chips and hamburgers increased considerably. Meanwhile, the figure for pizza declined moderately.
Among the high-income groups, everyone spent over 40 pence and nearly 19 pence per week on hamburgers and pizza respectively. In addition, the figure for hamburgers was just above 15 pence per week, which was similar to the amount for low-income groups on hamburgers. Low-income groups spent under 15 pence weekly and nearly 7 pence on hamburgers and pizzas in that order. Obviously, there was a large gap between the high-income and low-income groups in spending on hamburgers and pizzas. Following this, average-income groups spent on fish and chips at 25 pence, surpassing the two other groups. Meanwhile, the figures for hamburgers and pizzas were nearly 32 pence and almost 11 pence respectively.
Regarding the line graph, the number of fish and chips climbed gradually under 100 to around 150 gram per person between 1970 and 1980. From 1970 and 1985, the amount of hamburgers grew steadily from nearly 20 to just over 100 gram per person, whereas the figure for pizzas declined slowly from 300 to 200 gram per person at the same time. In that year, the consumption of fish and chips showed a significant rise to 300 gram. In the final year, the figure for fish and chips peaked at 500 gram. Meanwhile, the consumptions of hamburgers and pizzas both increased to just under 300 and just over 200 gram in that order.
