> [@Elendil\_s\_Heir](#): > > Thanks. A nitpick, but that very link says 3.1 cups. The complete quote from about the middle of the page: Coffee Cup Consumption per Day: Men drink as much coffee as women; each consuming an average of 1.6 cups per day. Women seem to be more concerned about the price than men. Among coffee drinkers, \*\*the average consumption in the United States is 3.2 cups of coffee per day. \*\* ---

The page contradicts itself, then, as near the upper right top corner it says: \*Coffee statistics show that among coffee drinkers the average consumption in the United States is 3.1 cups of coffee per day. \* Not a big deal, but add those tenths of a cup of coffee across this whole java-crazed republic and you’re talking some serious joe. ---

Not that it totally matters but for question #9 “They’ve got an awaful lot of coffeein Brazil” is the same as the “The Coffee Song”. And folks Brazil is the world’s top coffee producer. I am fighting ignorance here! ---

Of course, the question here didn’t specify “among coffee drinkers”, just “Americans”. And us civilized folks undoubtedly drag the average down some. ---
