Peanut butter may feel quintessentially American, yet the latest per-capita ranking tells a different story. As the graphic above, by Made Visual Daily, shows, West African and Southeast Asian countries dominate the leaderboard, while the United States sits mid-pack.

For context, Americans still eat vast absolute volumes—about 694,000 tonnes—but when population is factored in, they trail 10 other nations.

Latin countries don't seem to like peanut butter as much as the rest of the world.

I kinda already had that feeling, but I was still surprised by the numbers. I thought the US was in the top 3, but turns out it’s not. And I had no clue that the Netherlands and Belgium ate that much peanut butter!
