Publish a story on Facebook timeline

I'm very new to Facebook Open Graph. What I want to do is simply when a user opens a webpage, it will send a story to his/her timeline. I have created an "Eat a Meal" action on Open Graph. When I click Get code, I get something like this : 

https://graph.facebook.com/me/project:eat?
access_token=ACCESS_TOKEN&
method=POST&
meal=http%3A%2F%2Fsamples.ogp.me%2F325653997592127

When I click on this code, I am redirected to another page. I get an Access Token there and then when I click submit I get something like this :

{
  "id": "274655529384281"
}

When I click the id, I get this : 

{
  "id": "274555552716206", 
  "from": {
    "id": "274673726099999", 
    "name": "Jason McJason"
  }, 
  "start_time": "2014-07-16T14:23:26+0000", 
  "end_time": "2014-07-16T14:23:26+0000", 
  "publish_time": "2014-07-16T14:23:26+0000", 
  "application": {
    "name": "Project", 
    "namespace": "project", 
    "id": "325123427594834"
  }, 
  "data": {
    "meal": {
      "id": "539535656565608", 
      "url": "http://samples.ogp.me/325625656562127", 
      "type": "project:meal", 
      "title": "Sample Meal"
    }
  }, 
  "type": "project:eat", 
  "likes": {
    "count": 0, 
    "can_like": true, 
    "user_likes": false
  }, 
  "comments": {
    "count": 0, 
    "can_comment": true, 
    "comment_order": "chronological"
  }
}

But I don't know what to do with all of this data. I just have a simple HTML page. Where should I put these data? I'm a little lost and Facebook's documentation didn't help much. I'd appreciate if you tell me what to do with these. Thanks.

You need to integrate Facebook JS SDK on your web page.

Read up through this documentation- https://developers.facebook.com/docs/javascript/quickstart/v2.0

The very last example creates a post.
