Not that I am disagreeing individual waste is a big part of it, I am not convinced this chart adequately demonstrates that. Is the per capita from the chart after they remove non-individual waste from the total? If not then the per capita includes things like commercial or industrial waste and it’s not really reflecting an individual waste perspective.

The chart measures household food waste. So yes. That is explicitly what it did.

Do you know where the chart came from (presumably the statista article author)? I didn’t see it in the report, and I didn’t match the numbers so wasn’t really sure.
