Norway has some surprising stats

Yes, they are having an amazing time per capita.

Yeah I was going to say - interesting, but presumably per capita?

Yeah i he’s dropping the 5mil bombshell as if that was mindblowing. 5 million people drink almost as much coffee as 150 million? Craaaazy

they have 20 hour long nights in the winter. they probably need coffee to function

Coffee is remarkable for the digestive system.

Nah these people are 1/3 caffeine.

Their cross country skiers might be 🤷

Even then it’s not true. Sweden and Finland regularly trade first place when it comes to coffee consumption per capita.

So that the US sold be in first is just not true. And if I know for fact that’s not true. I have serious doubts about the rest of his claims

Nope - Finland is #1 coffee consumer. By a lot.

Yes. It might even be that Sweden is second in Europe at least, but I may remember the last statistic I saw on that wrong.

Indeed, multiple countries come before the US on this chart too if I remember correctly.

Depends on if you count in total or per person, and what you’re defining as coffee.

It’s not correct about tacos either. I wouldn’t even call what they’re eating in Europe “tacos”.

The US has got to be eating the second largest amount of tacos in the world. Not only are there millions of Mexicans in the country, tacos are part of the national cuisine.

Should I be informing some kind of official census each time I eat tacos at home?

Are you publicly admitting to not filling out your Daily Ration and Nutrient Survey? I’d delete this

Make sure you fill out your Tracking And Consuming Order Sheet.

I would bet my life that given the choice between Texmex tacos and European tacos, the vast majority of people raised on authentic tacos would choose Texmex. At least Texmex sometimes accidentally gets authentic flavors by virtue of proximity to the same ingredients.

I wouldn’t even call what they’re eating in Europe “tacos”.

Well we would. Stop gatekeeping!

You don’t have any good peppers and wouldn’t know what to do with them if you did. Peppers are the key to authentic Mexican food.

When people in Scandinavia says they’re eating Tacos. What they mean is, we’re making and eating burritos.

And Sweden in second place.

Per capita ofc.

It doesn’t say #1. For any of the stats.

Yeah. It says 2nd. After the USA. Guess who is first?

And USA isn’t even in the top 20. Stuff like this makes me wonder if anything in the post is even remotely correct.

Another odd thing is that their oil fund owns about 1.5% of all globally listed stock shares. That’s a lot by capita, since their population is less than 0.07% of the global population.

And somehow they’re still depressed as shit, or so I heard.

Well given how much sun they get and thus vitamin D, no wonder.

First time I’ve heard that about us

I got it mixed up with Finland.

You’re probably thinking of Finland. Often rated as the happiest country in the world, yet also scoring high on depression rates, which gets pointed out often on the internet. See https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/depression-rates-by-country. Norway scores pretty low.

Yeah, I often mix up those countries. My bad, sorry.

Ok, wait, USA consumes the most coffee, I can believe that. But do they actually consume the most caffeine?

I sure as shit do my part…hopefully my heart can keep up

No, they’re all bullshit stats. Finland is #1 /capita with Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Denmark also super high but not quite as high. If we’re talking total, then Norway isn’t even in top 20. Too few people. Top is something like USA, Brazil, then other big countries like Germany, France, etc.

Also France is 2nd biggest manga consumer. Googled that a few months ago when I noticed a bunch of manga stores on the street and went into one and it had lots of people.

Exactly. The US isn’t even close to the top. Source: https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/coffee-consumption-by-country
