ESSAY::
The four pie charts show the percentage of food budget [for] [a typical][household][going towards] restaurant [versus] home cook[ed] meals [across four decades][.] [T]he line graph [charts] the number of meals [per year] that [individuals] ate in fast-food restaurants [and] sit-down restaurants during the [same four decades, spanning] 1970 to 2000.

Generally, we can see that the average budget for eating out in restaurants [] gradually increas[ed] from 1970 to 2000. Increasing 5% in the first decade, the proportion of restaurant meals’ budget grew exponentially to 35% in 1990. The decreasing trend that people spared food budget in home cooking was noticeable, [] accounting for half of the [] total food budget in 2000.

From the [] line graph[,] [] the number of meals in both types of restaurant [] continually [rose] during the [surveyed time] period. [In 1970, individuals reported having the same number of fast-food and sit-down restaraunt meals. Consistent with the pie charts, the line graph shows an increase in both fast food and sit down meals. The line graph provides additional information in that the growth of restaurant meals is mainly attributed to fast food. By 1990, the number of fast food meals surpasses the number of sit down meals, and by 2000, the number of fast food meals double those at sit down restaurants.]

 
In conclusion, the [four pie charts and the line graph show an increase in meals consumed at restaurants, particularly fast food, over the span of four decades.]
