Ping!.................
I guess the retards at Oxford didn’t really have anything else to do.
The waste at home and especially in restaurants is enormous.
Great demonstration of Capitalism vs. Communism.
South Korea: 3404
North Korea: 2069
I wonder if that calorie chart includes those from beer? Depending on the answer, the UK rankings might be in error.
If Stacey Abrams goes on a diet, we'll drop out of the top ten.
That’s it! I’m moving to Bahrain. Biden is going to build a bridge to it anyway so I guess I’ll have to fly this time.
This actually makes me doubt the 2000 calories per day guideline. We’re definitely overeating but 2000 seems too low. Is the North Korean diet really the ideal?
It is amazing that these people don't try Keto for just a few weeks. Some of that blubber would immediately fall away.
I did not think that the average American is actually eating 3900 calories per day. According to one website I found, "weight (lbs) * 15 (kcal) = kilocalories to maintain weight." By this formula, that amount of calories would maintain a weight of 258 pounds.
Right now, according to CDC data, in the US, the average man weighs 199.8 and the average woman weighs 170.8. Which is overweight, but not enough to account for 3868 calories consumed per day. That means a lot of food is thrown away.
I have a hard time believing we’re about 4K per day.
I guess crap food is quite calorically dense…
Calorically speaking, those numbers aren’t that far apart.
I wonder why Ireland would be so much higher than the UK average?
with 1billion people now obese compared to 175 million in the 1970s
So, about 1/8th of the world today is obese. What was the world population in the 1970’s? I see between 3.7 billion and 4.3 billion.
Still, a much larger percentage today. Could be the additives we put in the food. The much easier access to food at all hours of the day/night.
Lots of reasons.
< Yes, I’m obese. I’m old, fat, tired, and now get off my lawn >
lol
Worthless statistics mired in unknown variables, but there’s always a redeeming quality somewhere.
Israel’s stands out visually, being no. 12 and all alone at the bottom of the chart.
3,570. Well this *is* the year of the gimel [גימל], 83. The great gimel (Lev 13:33) was read on Patriot’s Day this year, Boston Marathon Day.. the 127th, and also the 10th anniversary of the bombing.
Naftali נפלתי (sic), 570, was the cross-country ultramarathon runner of the family.
Where does it all end? You’d think a person could only eat so much!
Yeah, that’s accurate:
- from the UN
- would require 100,000 respondents for *possible* statistical validity
- necessarily based on notoriously unreliable self-reporting
- again, from the UN
3500 kcal a day and loving it. Good to know I’m around average, though my body fat is far less than that.
Put it another way, we’ve eliminated starvation among so many countries. Everyone has a right and ability to eat well, even get fat if they want.
