Thanks for the reply, Chris!
This data is from this survey of 2,000 people which yields about a 1% margin of error at these proportions - so this is indeed a significant increase over 5 years!
Moving in the right direction!! πͺ

Haha true! NB the 73% is would NOT wear - though to be fair, maybe 27% saying they would is too high π

Great question! There is some evidence that putting plant-based alternatives next to meat in stores (rather than their own plant-based section) does increase sales!
Some vegans don't like to go in the meat aisle - I have seen some stores put PB options BOTH in a PB section AND next to meat! π§

I appreciate the criticisms! I have to say, I didn't know about those statements, and I of course don't endorse them. Thank you for interacting patiently with my misstep! π
My aim was to highlight how much one person can do for animals - but the most impact is made by the products of teamwork π
