aBased on weather during business hours. We estimated the ratios for vegetable-rich meal orders and restaurant sales separately. Model 1 adjusted for fixed effects of restaurants by adding the dummy variables identifying restaurants. In Model 2, we further added daily temporal and climatic data as covariates
