According to the CDC, US consumption peaked at 4,325 per capita in 1963, remained nearly as high through 1977, and subsequently declined to 1,619 in 2006. In 2010, roughly 19% smoked, of which 75% did so every day, which would mean an average 31 / day for the 14% daily consumers and another 5% who claim to smoke occasionally. Roughly 40% of Greeks smoke, which would also mean an average of about 31/ day for the smokers. In other countries, the incidence of smokers versus non-smokers may also drive the better part of the variance, but some places may have a higher ratio of occasional smokers. |

Wow! I can't believe that the US is below 106 nations in cigarette consumption. Way to go USA! I am very proud. Three years ago I buried two family members and a beloved co-worker who died horrible deaths due to cigarette smoking (lung cancer). I can't even imagine countries like Greece and what their cancer rate is like. Whew! |

@Roger L United States is out of this graph. Check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tobacco_industry ... US exports cigarettes for consumption of others ! |
