The linegraph illustrates the frequency of fast food consumption per year of Mauritian teenagers between 1985 and 2015. Overall, the consumption of pizza had a downward trend, while that of hamburgers and fried chicken saw the opposite pattern. Strikingly, pizza was the most popular fast food in 1985, but after 3 decades, hamburgers had the highest consumption.
Specifically, the consumption of pizza per year stood at 60 times, which made it the highest figure in that year. Thereafter, this category became less attractive each year and hit its low of 10 times in 2015.
Conversely, teenagers consumed hamburgers 10 times per year in 1985, then this figure significantly increased and reached its peak of over 70 times in 2015, making it the most favorite fast food that year. Similarly, the number of times that fried chicken eaten per year started at the lowest figure in 1985, with only around 5 times. However, after 20 years, this figure rose dramatically to 60 times and unchanged between 2005 to 2010 and then it climbed slightly to around 63 times in 2015.
