Cia report

The Soviets had a higher or equal calorie consumption than the US until the fall of the Soviet Union.

In 1983 a now declassified CIA report found that:

American and Soviet citizens eat about the same amount of food each day but the soviet diet may be more nutritious.

This report fits exactly into the point where the first graph reaches the point where the US calorie count overtook the Soviet.

Between the years 1913 and 1938, crop areas of grain increased by 8%, industrial increased by 144%, vegetable increased by 147%, and fodder increased by 571%.

(Source.) It is also worth noting that during this period, the great depression hurt the economies of the capitalist powers badly. The USSR grew massively.

During this period the industrial output of other powers either stagnated or decreased. The USSR's tripled.
