    society must allow for 200lbs of meat to be moved fifty miles per day

    And in the US, said transportation will likely make even less sense (in terms of weight, cost, and health/comfort).

      Yes, you put 200 lb of meat into a 2,000 metal box with climate control, a couch, and sound system, then burn 1-3 gallons of gasoline.

      This is required for efficient spreadsheets.
