How much rice do people in Europe consume? Still very far from the 268kg in Bangladesh. Source: https://landgeist.com/2022/06/25/rice-consumption-in-europe/

Exactly, 268Kg in Bangladesh puts all Europeans on the same level.

Wat? That is 2700calories per day. Firstly this is more than an average person needs, and secondly I would have thought that calorie consumption in Bangladesh is a little lower.

Edit: I thought maybe they mean cooked rice, but no. It's uncooked.

The data for this map comes from the FAO. The data includes any product made of rice, including rice noodles, sake, rice starch, rice flour and other products made of rice. The amount of rice in the dataset concerns the raw (uncooked) weight.
