The table presents data on how the proportion of daily products, such as milk and butter, consumed in a week varies across four distinct age cohorts in a European country.
Overall, it is apparent that individuals aged over 65 account for the largest consumption in milk, whereas the 45-65 group represents the largest figure in butter. Also, most European citizens in the aforementioned age brackets prefer low-fat products than the full-fat one.
Regarding milk, residents aged over 65 consume the largest amount of milk weekly, at 1900ml, closely followed by the second-oldest age cohort ( 45-65 ) and the 26-45 age bracket, at 1670ml and 1650ml respectively. However, only 1200ml of milk is consumed by people aged under 25. Although that age cohort accounts for the smallest amount of milk a week, 59% of it opts for full-fat milk, which is much larger than other categories in the remaining age groups. It seems like since individuals get older, they prefer low-fat milk more. This is especially true with the 26-45 age group where 80% of European citizens in that group choose low-fat milk.
When it comes to butter, this kind of dairy products is mostly consumed by residents aged 45-65. That age bracket is the only category to use that large amount of butter, at 600g, a week, doubling that of the over 65 age cohort, exceeding the remaining groups as well. Conversely, while constituting at the largest amount of butter consumed weekly, European individuals at that age have a comparative distribution of 50% in terms of the fat of butter. Similarly, the over 65 age bracket also witnesses a roughly similar distribution. Given the remaining age brackets, whereas 60% of European citizens under 25 prefer full-fat butter as they do for milk, the 26-45 age cohort opts for low-fat butter more ( at 62% ).
