Ana likes both soda and milk. Assume that the ?more is better? principle applies to Ana; that is, she would always prefer to consume more of either good, holding the consumption of the other good constant.

The points on Figure 1 represent combinations of milk and soda that Ana might choose to consume. Figure 2 shows the same points as Figure 1, but it also shows some of Ana's indifference curves: I1I1, I2I2, and I3I3. These curves show more information about Ana's preferences than Figure 1
