A lot of people, but also a very large melting pot of cultures. Look at India in the graph, probably going to be similar for all the Indians in the US, now do that with other cultures that prioritize non-meat foods as well and it adds up quickly, even with so many people overall and so much of American specific culture focusing on things like hamburgers, hotdogs, chicken, etc.
It also seems to be that this is based on self-reported info, so personal definitions of vegetarian and vegan, or even “meat” may be statistically relevant. Some will include seafood, others won’t, so cultures with high concentrations of seafood in their usual diet may be categorized differently than assumed.
Honestly surprised the US is in the top 3 LMFAO
I suspect this is not a list of all countries with the USA number 3. It looks like a list of the countries with people who responded.
I’m curious about the survey selection process.

Half my meals are meat-free. To balance things out I skip vegetables the other half.
