Countries by Milk Production

4 tons per capita would be nearly 20M tons, as their population is ~5M. Per capita number is closer to 1.68 tons. Still a LOT!

There was a bit of a pattern. Big countries that are on all of these kind of quizzes, Europe, and the Anglosphere. A bit tough to figure it out at first, but was definitely easier at the end.

If only Mongolia had the modern production lines, they'd beat us all. Their origin legend, after all, states that they are "people/children of the cow" (hence the cow shoulders in traditional women's dressing and the hairstyle resembling cow horns).

probably the majority of people in those countries being lactose-intolerant doesn't help. I did find it funny though that, in a study, it was found that Japanese participants thought that weak cheeses like Brie had an extremely strong flavour, simply because they weren't used to them

You are what you drink, I suppose.

I don't see Georgia, Armenia or Azerbaijan anywhere on this quiz.

This map goes a long way in explaining these trends. Lactase, the enzyme used to digest lactose, is ubiquitous in European populations but very rare in East Asian and certain African populations. The Middle East and India (as well as the Caucasus) are somewhere between those extremes. As a result, Europe dominates this list, but a few of the more populous countries of South and West Asia also show up.

Except for New Zealand and Ireland, the countries above Netherlands are all large. The Dutch do love their dairy, but there are only so many cows one can pack into the Low Countries. I guessed it anyway assuming the sheer volume of production would make the list.

I of a feeling that you would not of guessed that you should of said "have"
