This is a great example of making data say whatever your want it to say. New York scores lower than Orlando?

Why should percentage of residents who are fully vaccinated against COVID get double weighting? What does that have to do with food diversity?

Love it! Thanks for sharing! Certainly better than the food in Toronto. I have to go there once every few months.

LOL, Toronto's food scene ****s all over Miam's and is much more diverse too (I get you're anti-Toronto for some reason, but you need to be realistic). This list is horrible anyways, no way Miami and Orlando are better/more diverse than NYC.

Where is Chicago or Houston on that list?….but Sacramento and Tampa?, c’mon.

How? Toronto isn't even on the list because it is for the U.S

Your response was vague and subject to interpretation. You did respond to a post involving Toronto. But in any event - carry on whatever you were talking about
