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

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
