I came across this photo essay earlier this week with pictures of what the world eats and found it fascinating. Things that stood out for me/questions brought to mind/stuff I discovered:
- Look at how colorful the American’s processed foods are
- The Germans have some tasty beer
- The Mexicans drink a lot of Coke
- The Breidjing Camp in Chad looks spacious and clean. My salad in the canteen at work at lunch costs more than their week’s worth of food.
- Everyone is eating lots of bananas/plantains. Especially the Ecuadorians.
- I like the Namgay’s living room better than their toilet. And that is one monster bag of grain.

I clicked your link to the photo essay, but it seems to be a busted link. I’d love to see the photo essay, and will check back in hopes that the linky is fixed. Like your blog!
Thanks Marion! The link was broken, and I think I’ve fixed it.
Thanks for stopping by!
Thanks for fixing that link! It’s an absolutely fascinating piece of work — and speaks VERY clearly to the American addiction to junk food, which seems to be spreading to other countries. Thanks again for bringing this to my attention.
