The graph also indicates that regardless of each generation, people spend about the same amount on groceries and eating outside.       From the graph, it is clear that millennials are spending a significant amount of their income on restaurants. In fact, the spend 23.8% on this. Perhaps it is because they have a strong preference for convenience.
