The table below gives information about the weekly consumption of ordinary 
milk and butter, and high and low fat alternatives of milk and butter among different 
age groups in one European country. Summarise the information by selecting and 
reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant.

The given tables illustrate the weekly intake of milk and butter and their high and low fat 
alternatives, among different age groups in a European country. A quick glance at the tables 
is enough to make it clear that the intake of milk is more as the age groups grow with 
advancing age, but the intake of butter decreases with advancing age. 
In the less than 25 year old age group, the intake of milk was 1235 ml, where as that of butter 
was 91 gram per week. Almost equal percentage consumed high-fat and low-fat milk and 
butter. Among the 25-44 your olds, the intake of milk was considerably more (1857ml), but 
their intake of butter was considerably lesser (51gm) than that of the younger age group. In 
this age group also, almost equal percentage had high-fat and low-fat milk, but high fat 
butter was consumed by only 36%, whereas the other 64% consumed low-fat butter. The 45-
64 age group had 1887 ml of milk weekly, but the butter intake was even lesser that the 
younger age groups at 37 gm per week. There was very slight difference in the percentage of 
high and low fat milk consumers, but slightly more than a quarter took high fat butter. The 
senior-most age group that is the 65+ age group consumed the highest amount of milk, and 
the lowest amount of butter per week, among the age groups given. In this age group only a 
third had high fat milk and high fat butter. 
To sum up, the older age groups went for low fat versions of milk, even though they 
consumed more milk, and their butter intake also grew less with advancing age.
