A Week of Food

The following pictures are from the award winning photographer Peter Menzel's book Hungry Planet: What the World Eats, detailing average families in 24 countries focusing on each family’s weekly food purchases and daily life. The book received the coveted James Beard Best Book Award in 2006 and was awarded Book of the Year from the Harry Chapin World Hunger Media Foundation.

    Hi Amanda!
    So happy you added me on Twitter...so, I could discover your lovely blog! Amazing collection sof images here. I am, of course, a little embarrassed by the food in the American households -- yikes! So fascinating! If you don't mind, I would like to add this to my weekend links this Friday?
    Cheers,
    Tara
