What are the numbers on the chart in the linked page supposed to mean? Average meat consumption per capita per year, organized by country? And the bigger question: how do this kinds of charts keep getting made, and how do articles that otherwise make no hint at their own charts' existence keep being published? |

I think it refers to carcass per person. This means that they're counting the weight of non-eaten tissue (bones, skin, intestines, brains, etc).
The chart sounds odd to me. I am Brazilian and I know that Argentinians and Uruguayans consume a lot more meat than us, I believe even more than the Americans.
When it comes to non-carcass, edible meat only we are at 37 kg per person/year. The Uruguayans are at 60 kg.
