Food Consumption Highlights

Anne Rogers

Food Review/ National Food Review, 1984, vol. NFR 25, issue 01

Abstract: Per capita food consumption dropped 7 pounds in 1982 to an average of 1,387 pounds, reflecting a decline in animal product use of 9 pounds from 1981. Reductions in pork, eggs, and dairy products offset increased poultry consumption. We consumed almost 2 pounds more of crop products per person, with increases in vegetables and potatoes offsetting decreases in cereal and bakery items, sugar and sweeteners, and fruits and melons.
