The graph below shows the amount in grams of potatoes, pasta and rice eaten in a European country between 1976 and 2006. v. 1
The line graph compares the intake of three food items – potato, pasta and rice in a European country between 1976 and 2006. The unit is given in grams and it represents the consumption by each person in a week. Overall, potato consumption was higher than rice and pasta consumption in the 1970s but after three decades, pasta became the most popular. Getting back to the details, around 400 grams of potato was consumed by each person in a week in 1976 in this country. At that time, the consumption of rice was exactly 300 grams, which was slightly higher than that of pasta. After ten years, pasta consumption skyrocketed while rice consumption plummeted and potato intake slightly dropped. In 1996, pasta became the highest consumed food at 500 grams while potato intake dropped to around 300 grams and rice below 20 grams. Finally, in 2006, pasta intake stood at 500 grams as it was 10 years earlier while potato eating per person further dipped and reached the nadir at only 100 grams. With a slight increase in potato consumption than 5 years earlier, potato remained as the second most preferred food in this country.
