WHAT IS EATEN IN ONE WEEK AROUND THE WORLD

This is very interesting and quite a powerful story in pictures.

What is eaten in one week around the world

? A very interesting assortment.

Note the large amount of drinks in some pictures.

This is undoubtedly one of the most interesting e-mails I've ever received.

Take a good look at the family size and

diet of each country, and the availability and cost of what is eaten in one

week.
