Plate 3 – U.S. Federal Food Subsidies and U.S. Recommended Daily Nutritional Requirements

The other graph showing the proportion of the U.S. Federal Daily Nutritional Recommendations of servings of each of the major food groups.

The other graph showing the percentage of each country that is considered undernourished, that is, the number of people who fall below a minimum energy requirement, which is estimated by sex and age group based on a reference body weight. This minimum energy requirement varies by country, but typically averages between 1750 and 2030 kilocalories per person daily.
The ‘Consumption’ Dinnerware Collection is a limited edition collection.
