The water cost of producing daily consumables

Some interesting figures on the amount of water in takes to produce daily consumable items.  I'm naturally devastated  that two of my greatest gastronomical indulgences are on this list:

  • Hamburger - 2,400 Litres
  • Cotton T-shirt - 2,000 L
  • Cup of coffee - 140 L
  • Slice of bread - 90 L
  • Glass of beer - 75 L
