Our calorie consumption has gone up and up.

Sugar and vegetable oils account for 30% of our calorie intake (on average) every day in 2011!

50 years ago it was 22% but most importantly has been the rise in vegetable oil consumption from 3% to 17%.

The balance of composition of the food we eat has changed and varies from country to country.

The work to put this together will have been enormous. Spend some time and play with the numbers.
