About accurate... if you're aiming for "completely off".
People need to understand that these 'averages' are based off of small test groups and does not account for the actual average. That's like me taking test groups from parts of Iowa, Texas, and Illinois and saying that's the average. Now compare that to if my samples came from places like California, Florida, and New York where high weighty people aren't as common.
This also doesn't have any relation to weight vs. consumption due to various metabolic rates of different people. I am a heavy guy, but I eat no more than my friend Joe who weights just over half as much as I do. Metabolism.
You also have to take into consideration the people who participate in these studies. Most of them are unemployed and uneducated, living off welfare. The rest of us have jobs and won't take 3 hours of our time to earn $75 doing a survey.
I had an average weekend and consumed over 10 pounds of alcohol. I don't see the 520 pounds of alcohol listed on this.

So, averages are subject to bullshit.
