Abstract

Excerpts from the report: This report estimates the supply of food products and nonconcentrated fluids on inventory in away-from-home eating establishments in the 50 States. Stocks of food are shown for civil defense regions by kind of business stocking the food, by storage type of food, and by major food group. Number of days’ supply per capita is shown for States, countries [i.e., counties] comprising Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas, other countries [i.e., counties], and independent cities. For each person in the United States, there is a 1.9-day supply of food on inventory in establishments that serve food for on-premise consumption. The supply is equivalent to over 1 billion meals, assuming 3 meals a day totaling 2,000 calories daily. The nonconcentrated fluids included in the above total would provide each person with a 1.2-day supply of beverages.
