How these are counted

A cafe counts from the first Google review we found that mentions a trend, and while it is on its current menu. Shares are of every cafe we followed in the last 90 days. Change in how many of the same cafes had it: the last 90 days against the 90 before, among the 160 cafes we have read through both.
