The provided graph details the amount of marine and meat products consumed by U. S. citizens over the course of 25 years starting from 1985. The unit is measured in kilos per household per year (KPH).
Overall, all of the food types underwent fluctuations throughout the period, but their eventual results created distinct trends as seen in the graph. In particular, both beef and goat registered steep downward trends, the chicken was on the rise, and marine food witnessed a slight decrease.
Looking closely at the graph, it is clear that U. S. families were less and less interested in beef and goat. To illustrate this point, in 1985, beef’s intake was the highest in 1985 with well above 300 KPH. Despite slightly increasing to over 350 KPH after 9 years, the beef’s domination came to an end when it plummeted continually to almost 150 KPH in 2010. Following a similar trend, goat, commencing at precisely 200 KPH, had considerably declined by 50% for 25 years.
As opposed to the aforementioned meat products, the chicken had a better performance. Having almost the same starting point as that of goat, chicken picked up steadily. It was in 1995 when chicken overtook beef and retained its growth, which made it the most consumed type of food in 2010 with roughly 400 KPH. As for marine products, there was a reduction from about 110 KPH to slightly beneath 75 KPH, though it was less significant than that of beef and goat.
