Well it might just be a mistake.
Norway is second on that per capita list and USA is first in tonnage. I could see how USA first, Norway second could be bungled out of that. Perhaps after a glass of wine or two. Or three maybe.
12KG of dried beans per capita is astounding. Those Scandinavians are giants among us.
I drink about 11kg dried beans on average. Daily brew is 60g and I drink half, so 30g. 365*30 = 10950g, just under 11 kg. There are occasional days I'll have an extra cup out and about.
Vast majority of it is locally roasted.
I order about 1.5kg of beans per month here in the UK, mostly from farrers in Kendal, and it's easy to drink that much, it's only 2 or 3 cups a day.
I drink about 20kg of coffee per year. Those Norwegians are lightweights.
