The charts below show the percentage of their 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.You should write at least 150 words.

The given pie charts and line graphs provide information on how much the average family expended on food over 3 decades from 1970 to 2000. The pie charts illustrate the proportion of budget spent on restaurant meals, while the line graph describes the trend of the number of meals taken in fast food and sit-down restaurants over the given period.

Overall, it can be seen that the proportion of the family budget on food cooked in the home is increasingly dropping over the years with an increase in the number of fast-food meals and a slight decline in food eaten in the sit-down restaurants.

It is clear from the pie charts is that there was a yearly increase in the budget on restaurant meals as compared to home cooking. In 1970, an average family spent about one-tenth of the income on food bought in the restaurants and there was an increase of about 5% in the following decade to 15% in 1980. This trend continued into the following decades to reach 35% in 1990 and by the year 2000, families had spent half of their budget on food bought in the restaurant.

Noticeably, the line graph showed that the number of meals eaten per year in fast-food restaurants increased slightly in the first 10 years from about 20 meals per year in 1970 to just below 30 in 1980. Furthermore, there was a subsequent drastic increase in the trend in the following two decades to reach about 80 meals per annum for fast food meals. While, on the other hand, sit-down restaurant food purchase increased slightly over the given 30-year period.
