    There were fluctuations but Road,water,pipeline showed an upward trend (even water showed the similar trend)

    but it dipped to about 30 million tonnes (in 1986)

    “climbed” and “dipped” found repetitive with usage, can be replaced with “rocketed” , “dropped” respectively.

    pizzas were high among the high and average earning families. (according to graph, pizzas are not higher in average income group)

    Increased consumption (highest amount has been spent on) of hamburgers is observed – graph is not about consumption, but expenditure)

    with 45% and 32% – (unit of measurement is not percentage, but million pounds)

    On the other hand, pizza was the least preferred among the low-income earning people which was around 7% ( repeated usage)

    fish and chips were preferred by families that earned less. (this trend is mentioned in overview, but is not discussed in any of the feature paragraph)

    The bar graph illustrates the amount of expense by the earning community of the country United kingdom on prepacked and processed food items mainly focusing on Hamburger, pizza ,fish and chips (units of measurement are missing , year is missing , I would suggest not to replace fast food items with packaged food)

    Overall, High consumption of hamburgers is to be noticed at 47% with the High incomed families compared to Average earning people who considerably eat Fish and chips a lot than the former. (Overall should talk about trend, then why it is presented data and figures . There is no reference of low income group, include that too).

    Bar graph is about the expenditure not the consumption , whole answer is moving around consuming fast food items. Be careful in analyzing the question
