        @WSJ Does that count the amount of food we burn in cars? Notice one think about the Arab Spring, there where not fat people.

        . @WSJ adjusting for population change, that's only a 68% increase, not a 300% increase; or 4ozs per day. 😕😕

        @WSJ should be using per capita numbers to negate the effect of population growth in this stat (hint: population nearly doubled since 1960)

        @WSJ This is a good thing--seriously. It indicates that food has become a lot cheaper since 1960.
