How to read this table
The differences between rows allow for a comparison of the popularity of various product groups, from root vegetables to berries. Comparing potato, vegetable, and fruit indicators shows which products were more prominent in the diet during different decades. While units of measurement are not specified in the rows, the dynamics clearly demonstrate changing Russian preferences throughout the period under review
What is visible in these numbers
Highest values: milk (387), pieces (297), Potatoes (127). The gap between the highest and lowest is 101.8 times. The top three account for 63.2% of the total across all items — the distribution is heavily skewed toward the top
Observations are annual; there are 35 periods in total. 331 of 385 possible values are filled (86%). Individual gaps occur: not all items were observed in all periods
