The axises should probably be labeled on this graph. As it is, I have no idea what the numbers on the vertical axis represent. Tons? Thousands of pounds? over whole US population? pounds per person average? Without knowing that, this graph in kinda useless. After looking at the graph this data was taken from, the Y axis is dry weight, pounds per capita. I can't add it to the image, but this should probably be on there somewhere.


Isn't glucose the same as dextrose? They're different lines on the graph. Magicxcian (talk) 03:20, 7 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Anyone willing and able to update this to the latest data? Fishmech (talk) 22:56, 20 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I have an updated image with the most recent data with axis labels and just dextrose instead of glucose dextrose. The units for the y-axis are now in millions of pounds/US population (graph pretty much looks the same). Waiting on account to get validated to upload it.--Agdr (talk) 05:18, 30 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
