The line graph above illustrates the amount of fish and three other kinds of meat namely lamb, beef and chicken that people of a European country consumed during the period of 1979 and 2004. Overall, the consumption of fish showed small degree of fluctuation; meanwhile, the figure for lamb, beef and chicken changed dramatically from the year of 1979to 2004. Starting with more than 50 grams for each individual per week in 1979, the amount of fish slightly declined for the next five years until 1984, followed by fifteen years of stability. In 1999, this amount decreased a little and then nearly remained unchanged until 2004. However, lamb and beef consumption with very high starting points of 150 grams and more than 200 grams per person per week respectively experienced many years of up and down and had the main tendency to diminish up to the year of 2004. unlike these two kinds of food, the consumption of chicken with a rather lower start than lamb tended to soar and reached its peak of more than 250 grams for each person a week in 2003 and stopped in 2004 with a small decline.
