The line graph depicts the hebdomandary food consumption in the UK between 1970 and 1990.
Overall, fish and chips went through the most dramatic increase, regardless of a similar yet more minimal pattern for hamburgers. Whereas pizza’s consumption gradually decreased over time.
Looking at the chart more closely, one can initially observe the slight increase both hamburgers and fish and chips experienced in the first decade. In the following five years, fish and chip consumption’s figure soared sharply to the equivalent of pizza’s in 1970, after which it continued to rise to its peak at about 500 grams until the end of the period. Similar patterns can be seen in the consumption of hamburgers, which rose sharply before ending at around 300 grams in 1990.
On the other hand, pizza was the most consumed by the English in 1970, starting at approximately 300 grams per week and decreasing gradually over the next ten years. It halted in 1980 and remained relatively stable, which was by far the lowest, until the end of the period.
