Cost of living in Brazil: population replaces meat by egg due to high food prices in the country

According to Alexandre Canatella, this change is one of the explanations for the increase in searches for recipes for ground beef, eggs and chicken on the @Cybercook site.

During 2020, the price of meat has changed and and remained very high by Brazilian standards. Now, meat became a luxury item.

According to Conab (Companhia Nacional de Abastecimento) estimates that animal protein consumption was 29.3 kilos per inhabitant in 2020, a 5% drop compared to 2019. It was the lowest level of consumption since the beginning of the historical series, which began in 1996.
