The table compares the weekly consumption of milk and butter, including high-fat and low-fat alternatives, among four age groups in a European country.

 Overall, milk consumption increases with age, while butter consumption decreases. Older age groups also prefer low-fat versions of both products.

 The under-25 group’s weekly milk consumption was 1235 ml, and butter intake was 91 g. Preferences for high-fat and low-fat variants were nearly equal for both products. In the 25–44 group, milk consumption rose significantly to 1857 ml, while butter intake dropped to 51 g. This group showed a preference for low-fat butter, with 64% consuming it compared to 36% who chose high-fat.

 The 45–64 group consumed 1887 ml of milk weekly, slightly higher than the younger group, but butter intake further declined to 37; slightly over a quarter consumed high-fat butter, while the rest opted for low-fat alternatives. The 65+ group consumed the highest amount of milk but the least butter among all groups, with only one-third choosing high-fat variants for both products.

In summary, older age groups consumed more milk but less butter, with a strong preference for low-fat options as they advanced in age.
