Mine currently stands at £4.81 pppn.
Why do I have this information so readily to hand? That's how my accountant likes it, I have a spreadsheet that breaks down all these items to a per person per night basis. Then at the end of each month the calculation is simple, 300 per/nights (or whatever it is) X £4.81 = Consumables for the month £1,483.

Thanks John, I have this at hand for taxes as well (which is what I am doing today). I was wondering how much we all diff in this area. I know room rates vary as well, just wondering.
I dropped the chilled bottled water for 2012. (Big dispenser not individ). Some love it, most never touch it. I loved it, but I offer ice for drinks anyway...
Another consumable I would consider is the per cup coffee machines as an amenity (not coffee service). I recall last year an innkeeper stating a guest had like 8 to 10 pods per day over a long weekend or something? That can really add up. Fortunately most guests are not this way.
