Why does all of the food produced by crops NOT make it to people?

When researchers at the University of Guelph in Canada broke those calories down into different food groups, they found a shortage in production of the most important foods. In the long run, with the global population expected to balloon to about 10 billion people by mid-century, this could cause some serious problems.
