You need to go to much more recent times to get worsening results/predictions.

- woodruffw 10mo agoI wasn't making a claim about the US being either healthier or unhealthier as a whole; I was only observing that annual per capita meat consumption does not trivially track with the benefits claimed on the site. It might, but the evidence is not presented.
- watwut 10mo ago> I was only observing that annual per capita meat consumption does not trivially track with the benefits claimed on the site There was no such observation, just claim going contra observed data. The period you picked does correlate meat consumption going up with health getting better. You said that meat consumption went up for last century. Then you claimed that "our already positive trend in meat consumption isn't yielding positive outcomes" - except that majority of that period did yielded positive outcomes.
