How much does the average person(american) eat in their lifetime in lbs.?

Answer 1

If you ever get a chance to watch "Human Footprint" on the NatGeo cable channel, don't miss it!  It was fascinating and showed how much on average we consume during our lifetime of many different products.

Here's a link to the site they have for it:

It was awesome to see all those products spread out!  Imagine, we eat average eating 12,129 hamburgers each in our lifetime!

I eat and average of 2 slices of bread a day, and this interactive feature:

Told me that will add up to 56,758 slices in my lifetime.
