US Egg Consumption per Person vs US Marriage Rate
US Egg Consumption per Person and US Marriage Rate correlate at r = +0.27 over 61 years (1961–2022), p = 0.038. With the time trend removed, r = -0.62. Direction flips without the trend.
Verdict: Direction flips without the trend. The raw correlation is 0.27, but once each series' time trend is removed it becomes -0.62. The year-to-year movements run the opposite way to the long-run trends, so the headline number is misleading.
