The graph below shows the consumption of fish and some different kinds of meat in a European country between 1978 and 2003.

The line graph displays the number of

grams

per

person

per

week

that a European nation consumed four different kinds of meats from 1979 to 2004.

Overall

,

consumption

of

chicken

increased dramatically over the entire time period,

while

the

consumption

of

beef

, lamb and fish decreased in the given course. At the beginning of the time,

beef

was the most-eaten meat with about 220

grams

per

person

per

week

. After that, regardless of fluctuation, the amount of

beef

eaten every

week

by a

person

continued to dip and stood at 110

grams

per

week

at the end

of the season. The second most bought meat in 1979 was

chicken

with just below 150

grams

per

person

per

week

.

In contrast

to

beef

,

chicken

has become quite popular throughout the given period. There was a steady surge in the

consumption

of

chicken

, reaching almost 250

grams

of

chicken

per

week

per

person

. A downfall has

also

been seen in the eating of lamb. In 1979 150

grams

of lamb was consumed by each individual per

week

.

This

number continued to drop by the end of the time duration to 60

grams

per

person

per

week

.

However

, fish

consumption

remained relatively stable throughout the entire timeframe.
