India consumes more dairy per capita? Really surprising.

Assumably, India is much higher because the cow is sacred in Hinduism. That’s why India has so many cows since you can’t butcher and eat them. Therefore, dairy is the way to go. Looking it up just now, woah! India has 300 million cows. China only has 50 million.

I went for that since I know India has some cheese dishes but most Chinese people I've met are lactose intolerant

My thought process too. Also because I can think of more Indian dishes that utilize milk/cheese/yogurt (e.g. paneer, mango lassi) than I can for Chinese dishes.

It is probably region dependent but my image of Indo-Pakistani cuisine is one in which cheese and especially youghourt are prevalent plus milky chai is a staple drink.

When I was in China, I became aware that people in the Mongolian areas consume milk, however aside from this milk was virtually absent.

Also paneer and ghee are found in many Indian foods. India is a wonderful place to be vegetarian, but not quite as easy to be vegan

No. Average height is for adults. Malnutrition is dragging India's average down.

Do you think that's the only thing? That if India caught up to China nutrition-wise, they would be similar? For sure, there are large parts of India with very short people, but I thought that states like Punjab and Rajasthan would bring up the average height a bit.

Whats the source for the height question? I can't find anything that says India is 9 cm taller. I can barely find sources saying 3 cm.

I would say not really, even if they’ve added more members, BRICS still means the same thing, no?
