I'm led to believe that food is, on an item for item comparison, more expensive in Europe than it is in the US. Maybe that might explain a higher consumption in the US, but with accordingly lower expense? I don't know.....WildGorillaMan wrote:http://www.economist.com/blogs/graphicd ... ly-chart-3
The $ per person for the US and Spain is almost identical. Discuss.China overtakes America to become the world's largest grocery market

Yes and all I said was that that trend is true across age groups, not isolated to a single one.The Crawdaddy wrote: CB: it's not like I said that older people can't be rude. C'mon be serious. What I said was that there's a definite trend towards less manners in society. If you can't see that, then I think you're wearing blinders.
