You know, most (Americans) drink little or no alcohol. The cult of alcohol is certain they cannot live without it, which is part of the problem perhaps. But most do live without it. And are not eating bugs.
* 85.6 percent of people ages 18 and older reported that they drank alcohol at some point in their lifetime
* 69.5 percent reported that they drank in the past year
* 54.9 percent reported that they drank in the past month

Consider this: I am in the group that can say "they drank in the last month." It is also simultaneously true that I "drink little or no alcohol" (by any reasonable standard).
How can that be? Well, if you took my last 12 months worth of alcohol consumption and calculated my "average drinks per month" the number would round to 0. So yes, I do drink, and by happenstance it happens that I've had a drink in the last month. But I think that easily qualifies as "little or no alcohol".
Most Americans do drink.
That doesn't contradict what the person you are replying to said. They said most Americans drink "little or no" alcohol, not "no alcohol".
Why is it that on the Internet almost everyone seems to silently remove/ignore qualifiers like that, and treat everything as a binary dichotomy???
