I’m not sure there is enough data here about veganism as opposed to vegetarianism to draw many conclusions. It would also be interesting to see how many vegans for ethical reasons have reverted back and compare the two growth rates of ethical vs dietary vegans.
It may be better to look at the amount of meat being bought year to year per capita to see overall trends. 50 million people eating vegetarian for one day a week will have a much larger impact then 100,000 more vegans.
Maybe, or we could compare areas with tv/radio/internet advertising/ leafletting and the resulting change in non vegan products bought in that area, which could take in a much larger data sample.
Both would be important to see what works, and maybe reaching out to companies that sell vegan products to see if they have market data could help.

Wouldn’t veg*n recidivism specifically be more important for evaluating veg*n outreach programs like leafleting?
