What the World Eats in One Week
What do families around the world eat in a span of one week? It obviously differs depending on whether you live in Mali, Africa, or a suburb in the USA where corndogs share the table with iceberg salad.
CNN/Time Magazine showcase a series of family portraits taken around the world by Peter Menzel from the book THE HUNGRY PLANET in its photo essay album "What the World Eats, Part I (HERE).
The families reveal the food they eat within one week. The publisher Ten Speed summarizes it best: "This age-old practice of sitting down to a family meal is undergoing unprecedented change as rising world affluence and trade, along with the spread of global food conglomerates, transform diets worldwide."
