What is the Subordinating Conjunction in this sentence?

Hey all, quick question. What is the subordinating conjunction in the sentence below? Is it "so" or is it "although"?

The consumption of grapes also declined, but much less significantly to just below 50 grams, so although they remained the least popular food, consumption levels were the most stable.

Thank you!
