The graph shows how much fish and meat (chicken, beef and lamb) were consumed by an average person in a particular European country from 1979 to 2004 in grams per week (gpw).
Overall, consumption of all types of meat declined with the exception of chicken, which showed a steady increase in popularity, and chicken ended up as by far the most popular meat, while fish was the least consumed.
At the start of the period, beef was the most poplar meat, with over 200 gpw being consumed by the average person. At the same time, consumption of chicken and lamb stood at about 150 gpw, while that of fish was much lower, at 60 gpw. Thereafter, consumption of chicken rose steadily, finishing the period at 250 gpw, while in contrast, demand for beef and lamb saw consistent declines as their consumption ended at around 100 gpw and 60 gpw respectively.
Throughout the whole period show, fish was the least popular, falling from 60 gpw being easten by a particular person in this country in 1979, to 40 gpw in 2004.
