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.
The charts illustrate the difference between the amount of money which is spent on eating out and home cooking four years, starting from 1970 and the line graphs compares the number of fast food meals and restaurant meals in the same period of time.
Overall, people apparently preferred saving money by cooking at home to going to restaurants between 1970 and 2000. In addition, there is an obvious upward trend in the numbers of meals eaten at fast food restaurants and sit-down restaurants during the same 30-year period.
It is clear that red, which stands for home cooking, makes up most of the charts in 1970 (90%) and 1980 (85%). By contrast, having a restaurant meal seems to be not a very popular choice at the same time, which was 10% and 15% respectively. In 1990, the increase in the proportion for blue has shown that people preferred eating out to staying at home and cook. Ten years later, the figure for both counterparts are saturated, which was 50%.
There has been a significant growth in the number of fast food meals consumed while that of restaurant meals has stayed quite stable over the period. Firstly, the figure for both counterparts was 20 in 1970 and they both experienced slight growth with fluctuations until 1985, the patterns for two types of meals was about nearly 40 meals a year. From this point to the end of the period, the popularity of fast food went up remarkably with 90 meals while that of restaurant witnessed small increase, which was about 50 meals per year.
