The charts below show the percentage of food budget the average family spent on restaurant meals in different years. The graph shows the number of meals eaten in fast food restaurants and sit-down restaurants.

Write a report for a university lecturer describing the information in the graph below.

Sample Answer:

The given illustration compares the amounts spent on restaurant foods and on home cooking foods in four different years and gives data on the number of meals eaten in two different restaurant types.

As is presented in the pie chart, initially in 1970, 90% of total food budget was spent on home-made foods while only 10% was spent on restaurant foods. The amount spent on restaurant meals increased to 15% in 1980 while it reached to 35% in 1990. Finally in 200 average family spent half of the total budget in restaurant meals and that shows a rapid increase on the people’s habit of having meals in restaurants.

In the line graph, we can observe that in 1970, the fast foods and sit-down restaurant meals were taken 20 thousand times each and over time these numbers kept increasing. Finally in 2000, more than 90 thousands fast food meals were eaten while the sit-down restaurant meals were eaten 50 thousand times a year. This indicates the changes of people’s habit of eating out and the popularity of restaurant foods over the home-made foods.

In summary, over the 30 years’ time people adopted the habit of eating out at restaurant and sit-down restaurant gained more popularity over the fast food shops.
