Daryll Ray writes on a major improvement in Chinese lifestyles: in 1976, the per capita daily calorie consumption was 2,051. By 2000, the per capita calorie consumption had risen to 3,029. They still eat far more grain and less meat, sugar, and oil. The point is, policies of the past couple of decades have made for a much tastier diet. I'm guessing the consumption of meat, sugar, and oil is going to rise, and grain will decline, which is pretty much in agreement with Ray. (via Rice Cooker).
