The line graph compares the amounts of four kinds of dairy—cheese, low-fat ice cream, full-fat ice cream, and yogurt—per person consumed in the USA between 1970 and 2010. Units are measured in pounds.
Overall, it is evident that cheese was the most popular product over the given period, while the consumption of full-fat ice cream and low-fat ice cream remained steady throughout the years. The yogurt figures, on the other hand, saw a sharp peak at the end of the period.
In 1970, full-fat ice cream was the primary source, with above 10 pounds per person, although the cheese figure overtook it in around 1975, with a number of almost 13 pounds, and kept increasing over the years to its highest number, which was almost 23 in 2010, while the full-fat ice cream figure slightly fell to just under 10 in the last year.
On the other hand, low-fat ice cream and yogurt began with almost 0 and under 5 pounds, respectively. However, the yogurt figure rose to almost 5 in 2010 and slightly below 10 in 2010. Thus, it stood in second place at the end of the period.
