10,000 Pounds of Food is Processed by an Average Human in a Lifetime
Many people don’t like to see themselves as gluttons. However, at the end of an average human’s life, we would have all eaten an enormous amount of food. This amount of food can run into 10,000 pounds, about 35 tons of food in a lifetime.
Also, apart from food, the average person will ingest about a hundred milligrams of dirt daily. That is a lot of dirt. At the end of one’s life, one would have consumed six pounds of mud.
