Canadians ate an average of 112.7 pounds of beef and veal in 1977, the latest year for which figures are available, compared to VI noun in 1971, for an increased consumption of around 23 per cent. Fish consumpticrn increased from 11.4 to 17 pounds per person over the same period. Consumption of fruits and vegetables also. showed big gains, from 253%4 pounds to 296 pounds in the case of fruit, and from 114.6 pounds to 127.1 pounds in the • case of vegetables. Among foods which have shown a decline in per capita consumption are milk, pork, eggs, and sugar. In 1951, Canadians spent 20.6 per cent of their personal incomes gr food and non-alcoholic beverages consumed at home. By 1971, this had dropped to 14.3 per cent, and by 1977, to 13 1 compared to $23,708, million in 1978, with combined after-tax profits expected of $780 million, compa.red-to $739 million last year. -Food,,pr ices have risen less drainatically in 1979 than they did in 1978, and last year's 17.4 per cent increase is unlikely to be repeated in the foreseeable future. The Consumer Price Index will show an increase of around 13 per cent in food - prices, this -year, the GPMC study says. For 1980, the GPMC expects a similar 13 per cent rise, mainly due to more costly beef: im- ported freSh produce, and rising energy, packaging andlabbur costs. • From 1970 to 1979, food prices rose 137.4 per cent in Canada, compared to 48:8 per cent in West Germany, 102.7 per cent in the United States, and 246.2 per cent in the United Kingdom.
