Link: http://www.menzelphoto.com/hungryplanet/ The book profiles 30 families from 24 countries and has interesting stories, recipes, and pictures of each family and statistics about each country. There is a forward by Marion Nestle and a few short essays by other food writers. It really is quite remarkable to see the variety in types and quantities of food. It's a good book, I recommend it.
