    Ballpark estimate, excluding the sugar:

    2.5kg beef: ~6265 Calories

    0.5l vodka: ~1082 Calories

    1.3kg white rice: ~4743 Calories

    1.3kg flour: ~4732 Calories

    500g butter: ~3585 Calories

    300g cooking oil (Google says rapeseed oil is popular in Poland so I used that): ~2652 Calories

    250g chocolate: ~1338 Calories

    Total: 24,397 Calories or ~813 Calories per day

    Some other people online also did the math and came up with similar numbers. For example: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37027027 came up with 33,063 Calories (including the sugar)

      You get another 333 calories from the sugar, add it to the vodka!

      Nice, that was super fast. I guess it’s probably enough for one person to survive if they practically don’t move at all the entire month, for a little while at least.

      Still not pleasant I imagine.

        What would you be willing to do to ensure that your fellow citizens aren’t dying of literal hunger on the streets?

        (Clearly to most Americans, that answer is “absolutely nothing”)
