The line graph compares the weekly consumption of three different types of fast food in the UK between 1970 and 1990. (during 20 – year period)
It is clear from the graph that the amount of Fish & Chips consumed per week experienced the most dramatic change during the research period. Additionally, while the quantities of Hamburger and Fish & Chips eaten both rose significantly, there was a slight decrease in the figure for pizza.
In 1970, the amount of Pizza consumed was highest, at more than 300 grams, while the figure for Hamburger was significantly lower, at only around 30 grams. Meanwhile, approximately 80 grams of Fish & Chips were eaten by UK people. In 1985, Pizza consumption slightly fell and reached the lowest point of 200 grams, whereas the other two figures gradually went up.
In 1990, Fish & Chips weekly consumption increased dramatically to 500 grams and became the highest figure in the line graph, while Hamburger’s figure experienced a slight rise to about 300 grams. At the same time, the amount of Pizza eaten remained stable at roughly 200 grams.
