one metric says 6 % of the u s population is vegan and faunalytics says it is about 0.5% of the u s population which is vegan


the harris poll puts the percentage of u s adults over 18 who are vegan at about 1.7%


it may be easier to see the trend through supermarkets shelve stocker eyes as the guardian claims the demand for vegan / vegetarian food in the UK rose 40% last year


nielsen says the demand for plant based foods in the u s increased 8.1% last year while the demand for meat decreased


ny times says beef consumption dropped 19% from 2005 to 2014
