Suppose the Surgeon General issues a public statement saying that consuming peanut butter is bad for your health. Show the effect of this change on the market for peanut butter by shifting one or both of the curves on the following graph, holding all else constant. Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther.
