Interesting that you don't usually see those two on a map at the same time. 🤔

But it’s weird when a black hole takes half an island neatly down the border

The meat element in this graph does not consider human meat.

Note:

Calculated based on meat-to-vegetable supply: (meat/vegetable)*100

Food supply is not the same as consumption but is often used as an estimate of consumption

Link:

https://www.fao.org/faostat/en/#data/FBS (the website doesn't support individual links based on filters)

Element: food supply (kg/capita/yr)

Items: meat, vegetables (aggregated)

Tools: Tableau

Your link is to a data website but does not show at all what metrics you purport to be showing. I don't know why you expect the reader to wade through this and spend who knows how much time to replicate what you present.

Hi, I'm sorry about that but the FAO website doesn't provide individual links when you filter the results. My bad, I stated the food supply metric only but didn't include the items, which were meat and vegetables (aggregated). Thanks for the reminder, I'll make an edit to the note.

South America is kinda bullshit, even though OP pointed it out

That's not the meat we eat, that's the meat the rest of the world eats

We can't afford our meat

Have you ever been to Argentina???

Sure, but that's south America not just Argentina

TheRedditHike t1_iwdsjoy wrote

That's just one example, Brazil, Uruguay, Chile, Colombia a fair amount of meat is eaten. Rice and Beans too. People eat meat, of every social class. Even if the upper class probably eats more. It's accurate to say that more meat is eaten than East Asia, Africa, South Asia and maybe Europe too (especially in the Southern Cone).

There's solid meat consumption sure but meat production is mostly for export, hence the huge numbers

South Americans have a more meat heavy supply of food than Americans? Interesting.

This is based on production not consumption right?

icywatermelons OP t1_ivy3qw1 wrote

not production but supply per capita! it's sometimes used as an estimate for consumption too!

Mexico in Central America? Siberia is Eastern Europe?

Who made this divisions? A kid from the USA?

If you look closely it seems Western Russia and Eastern Russia are two separate regions, they're just not labeled.

If you look closely the Balkans too... and Kaliningrade.

The closer and longer you look at the map the worse it gets, missplaced divisions are the least wrong thing once you notice all the missing islands

Yeah, this map is D+ at best. Also, should have broken out more developed vs. developing countries since the wealthier a country gets, more meat tends to be consumed.
