    Is it even possible? Maybe it's some calculation error

        https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/vegetable-consumption-per-capita betting this is where they sourced it, FAO presents it at the supply level, the per capita figures are OWID's doing

        I found the first usable data digging into this one: https://www.fao.org/faostat/en/#data/FBS

        with options looking like this (just hit select all to get all measures on that top right box):

        seeing figures on the same order as whats listed in the OP:

      I think it's accurate for China. There's lot of veggies in dishes in China everywhere I've been. This is pre-cooked weight certainly. I'm in the US and definitely more vegetarian than average but each week I go through a head of broccoli, 500g-1kg of bok choy or gailan, mandolin + pre-prep 6 large onions (>2.2kg) & 10-12 bell peppers (usually ~1.5kg), a couple 250-300g sweet potatoes, and 3-4x384g bags of frozen spinach.
