In the order of full disclosure, I didn't take the time to look for other sources verifying this.
Every year the average American consumes 24 pounds of French fries, 23 pounds of pizza, 24 pounds of ice cream, 53 gallons of soda (or a gallon each week), 24 pounds of artificial sweeteners, 2.7 pounds of salt, 90,700 mg of caffeine, and about 2,700 calories a day. And that's just the average.
When one takes a look into the real effects of those things and how much disastrous health could have been easily avoided, it's deeply saddening.
