Another #TidyTuesday: attempting to quantify bread vs. rice cultures based on Allrecipes data.

tidytuesday.seanlunsford.com/...
Bar chart titled “The Grain Divide” showing the predominance of flour/wheat-based versus rice-based recipes across 49 cuisines. Cuisines are listed vertically from Austrian at the top to Thai at the bottom. Bars extend either right (indicating flour/wheat predominance, marked with a bread emoji) or left (indicating rice predominance, marked with a rice bowl emoji) from a central vertical axis. European cuisines like Austrian, Dutch, and Finnish have the longest bars extending far right into the bread zone, while Asian cuisines like Thai, Vietnamese, and Chinese have bars extending left into the rice zone. The chart uses a dark background with green-tinted bars, creating a diverging bar chart that clearly shows the grain divide between Western and Eastern cuisines.

Sankey diagram titled 'Oyster Quotient: Visa requirements to and from United States' showing the flow of visa requirements between the United States and other countries. On the left side, the largest flow shows 'Visa Required' for foreign nationals traveling to the US, while on the right side, the largest flow shows 'Visa-free Access' for US citizens traveling abroad. Other categories include Electronic Travel Authorization, Online Visa, and Visa on Arrival options. The visualization illustrates the asymmetric nature of visa requirements, where most foreign nationals need visas to enter the US, but US citizens enjoy visa-free access to most international destinations.

I kind of had a soft launch of my #TidyTuesday site last week, and I'd taken a stab at the one before that—but this is the first time I'm happy with what I ended up with. Powered by @evidence.dev and @duckdb.org. #DataBS

A GitHub-style calendar heatmap titled “Ribbiting Data: Unique frog species recorded in Australia” with data from the November 2017 to November 2023. It shows higher counts in the spring and summer, with a dip in the winter.
