> The average American consumes about 127 kilograms of meat a year

That's less than a pound of meat per day, how do these people survive ?

> The Eat-Lancet Commission recommends people consume no more than 15.7 kilograms of meat a year.

43 grams per day, imagine living on 1 ham sandwich a day.

> But politicians in richer nations typically shy away from policies aimed at influencing consumer behavior, especially where it involves cutting consumption of everyday items.

Lol, what food pyramid?
