Japanese People Eat a Lot of Fish

Published by toddwins at 10:22 pm under Useful Stuff Edit This

I guess some stereotypes are true.

So today, I was working on a story for the paper about the amount of food the Chicago Bears consumed during training camp. For example, they ate enough liquid eggs to fill 4 standard-sized bathtubs.  You know, that kind of thing.

Anyways, I was looking at per capita seafood consumption to make some sort of statistical joke about the Bears eating more seafood than Ethiopia, and I found out that Japan eats more seafood per year than the US, despite being much smaller. Go JAPAN!

I had the statistical data in front of me all day, I think per capita consumption was 49.8 pounds per year according to an NOAA study. But now I can’t find it. And I’m tired because I worked for 14 hours. Go JAPAN!
