US Egg Consumption per Person vs US Internet Users
US Egg Consumption per Person and US Internet Users correlate at r = +0.83 over 34 years (1990–2023), p < 0.0001. With the time trend removed, r = +0.28. Likely spurious (shared time trend).
Verdict: Likely spurious (shared time trend). Both series mostly just trend over time. After removing that trend the correlation collapses to 0.28 — the relationship is probably coincidental, not causal.
