One web site suggests 2.6 million cattle are slaughtered in the UK every year. That works out to some 7000 per day. However, the UK also imports beef from the Netherlands, Germany, Uruguay, Argentina, South America, and elsewhere around the world.
An analysis of supermarket purchases suggest about half the beef consumed in the UK is imported, which would raise the total number of cows eaten per day a bit over ten thousand. The population of the UK is 61 million. Not all of those 61 million will eat beef every day, but what is ten thousand cows divided among 61 million people?
There is about 400 lbs of meat per cow, or 4 million pounds of meat per day, which works out to about 1 oz per person per day. That is probably pretty accurate, considering that some of those 61 million are vegetarians, and some don't eat beef every day. A nice 7 oz steak or hamburger per person per week--the figure we derived (10,000/day) is probably pretty close.
