What People Eat Around the World, Hungry Planet, Nutrition

It's an inspired idea--to better understand the human diet, explore what culturally diverse families eat for a week. That's what photographer Peter Menzel and author-journalist Faith D'Alusio, authors of the equally ambitious Material World, do in Hungry Planet: What the World Eats, a comparative photo-chronicle of their visits to 30 families in 24 countries for 600 meals in all. Their personal-is-political portraits feature pictures of each family with a week's worth of food purchases; weekly food-intake lists with costs noted; typical family recipes; and illuminating essays, such as "Diabesity," on the growing threat of obesity and diabetes. Among the families, we meet the Mellanders, a German household of five who enjoy cinnamon rolls, chocolate croissants, and beef roulades, and whose weekly food expenses amount to $500. We also encounter the Natomos of Mali, a family of one husband, his two wives, and their nine children, whose corn and millet-based diet costs $26.39 weekly.

Germany looks like the best! It's well balanced and has alcohol. The cost is misleading because it is expensive to eat healthy in the U.S. I know it's expensive to eat out too, but if you only have 50 bucks for a week of groceries, you tend to get what is going to go the fartherest and that's usually processed foods, unless its the spring or summer when fruits and vegs. are in season.

[TheCalichic9]

The U.S has the worst eating habits in the world. here in the U.S their is an abundance of food and people have no excuse to eat bad. I have eaten pretty healthy my whole life my family cooks all homemade food and I can't remember the last time I ate out I cut off soda for about 2 years ago and I drink about 9 glasses of water a day and I feel great. when i go to the store i always check labels and find my self putting a lot of things back. stay away from fast food and processed foods.

One thing which Natalie fails to explain is HOW the wholefoods are prepared, I don´t believe most of these people consume the veggies raw, fermented or lightly cooked. It is custom to cook the life out of them, so I don´t believe simply having a wide arrangements laid out translates to proper eating

[CONTRAHABS]
