3 creative infographics

This is the link to the first infographic I found to be well organized:

...I immediately thought the information given through this infographic to be well-sorted out. For both bean shops and fast food restaurants discussed, the designer used scaling of shapes to show the amount of stores by each country, whereas the bigger shapes symbolizes larger amounts, while the smaller ones symbolizes that of smaller amounts.

I especially like this infographic for its use of compare and contrast between the two subject matter:

...The use of side-to-side comparison is a good idea definitely. The designer made good use of the idea of parts within an automobile and a human's body. Being able to compare the intake of these two subjects and using the term 'calories' in a creative manner was what caught my attention.

Now, this next infographic is very easy to understand and also very creative:

...The use of a variety of graphs creatively, as well as the simplicity seen throughout this design, was what led me to continue reading the entire thing. Having the text put over a black background makes it very easy to read through the infographic in a consistent flow as well.
