Common Space

The joint plot of the common space shows a final configuration that is very similar to the two-way analysis on the overall preferences, with the solution flipped over the 45-degree line. Thus, the vertical dimension now appears to discriminate between soft and hard bread or toast, with softer items as you move up along the axis. The horizontal dimension now does not have a clear interpretation, though perhaps it discriminates based on convenience, with more "formal" items as you move left along the axis.

The individuals represented by the row objects are still clearly split into clusters according to preference for "hard" or "soft" items, with considerable within-cluster variation along the horizontal dimension.
