How Much Food?

Question: How many pounds of food will one person eat in a lifetime?

A newsletter from the Wolfe Clinic sets a person's total intake at 60,000 to 100,000 pounds...

That's the equivalent weight of six to 10 elephants. If a person lives for 70 years and eats 60,000 pounds of food, that works out to 2.35 pounds per day.
