Figures & data

Figure 1. Distribution of dyadic food similarity measures.

The figure shows the distribution of the dyadic similarity measure based on (a) the Manhattan distance, and (b) latent semantic analysis (LSA).

Figure 2. Effect of migration on food imports depending on similarity of food tastes.

The figure shows the effect(in percent) of migration on food imports depending on how similar migrants’ food tastes are relative to their host country’s food tastes based on the estimation results of model (4) in (based on LSA similarity measure, estimated by PPML). The y-axisdisplaysEquationEquation (4), i.e. β1+β3FS, and how its value changes with the degree of similarity FS on the x-axis.The grey shaded area displays a 95% confidence interval. The more similar migrants’ food tastes are to their host country’s food tastes (higher values of FS), the lower is the effect of migration (M) on food imports from the migrants’ home country (v).
