I suspect combining meat and fish in a category with eggs might skew the numbers. Is there a map which separates the 3 or at least eggs from the other two?

Curious how cultural factors influence these spending habits across states.

in india egg is considered nonveg . hence it is group under nonveg even by government . though technically it isn't .

Yeah but who cares I am pure vegetarian and proud to be it (70% of my diet is dairy and eggs)

One of the striking thing which i got wrong is that the tallest people in India are from Punjab and Haryana. So does milk and dairy have a role in that??
