What is the source for this¿?

I'm guessing the Global Food Security Index, which in 2019, had the US ranked 3rd. That's based on a composite score that takes food availability, nutrition, quality, and safety into account.

As of 2022, the index has been updated and the US's composite score puts it at 13th.
