What the world eats

Somehow, this link has been passed on to me one more time and I can't resist posting it this time round.

The content of the slides comes from the book, "Hungry Planet" and it shows what certain people eat during the course of a particular week.

If you observe the diet of the people from the developed countries, you realise how much processed and unhealthy food we eat.

It is also sad to see how little the people at the Breidjing Camp (slide 3) eat.

I feel very lucky to be able to live in a developed country and be offered the opportunity to eat tasty, healthy and nutritious food.
