Food Availability (Per Capita) Data System
This data system provides information on “food availability,” or the per capita amount of food in the U.S. food marketing system available for consumption. Based on data related to imports and exports of various foods, and farm and industrial uses, this system approximates what those in the U.S. consume, on average, including all food from grocery stores, restaurants, cafeterias, and other eating places.
