As someone who does a lot of data science for work, this looked off immediately and I was right. The proportions of the vegan slice are exaggerated. Here's actual ratio

Interesting. Would you have a source?

Happy as I am to see nearly a 100 million vegans, I wonder if the plot was made to be intentionally misleading. The pie chart has the vegan slice pulled out and enlarged - it's not even close to the real proportion... Also, out of curiousity, where'd you get the numbers?

I don’t care if it’s accurate, I just see how many people I’m superior to because I’m vegan.
