    150gr is moderate ?! Daaaaamn. TIL our family is moderate as fuck then. More than 150 is just not feeling okay. We are pushing to 200 when it’s steak day. I’m curious what’s the average now.

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_meat_consumption

      I live in Denmark, and we were highest on meat consumption in 2002, but in 2020 the amount of meat consumed per person was cut by more than half!
      So the highest number was in 2002 with 146 kg per year per person, or 397 gr per day, more than double the recommendation on average!
      Supermarkets here are making smaller packages, and beef is now taxed to reduce consumption of that in particular. Also because it is considered more environmentally harmful than other types of meat.
