Photographs
by the Peter Menzel are
from the book "Hungry Planet", which was released in 2007.
What does the author tells about book? The age-old practice of
sitting down to a family meal is undergoing unprecedented change as
rising world affluence and trade, along with the spread of global
food conglomerates, transform eating habits worldwide. "Hungry
Planet" profiles 30 families from around the world, including,
Bosnia, Chad, Egypt, Greenland, Japan, the United States, France, and
offers detailed descriptions of weekly food purchases; photographs of
the families at home, at market, and in their communities; and a
portrait of each family surrounded by a week's worth of groceries.
Featuring photo-essays on international street food, meat markets,
fast food, and cookery, this captivating chronicle offers a riveting
look at what the world really eats.
In
this photo essay we can have a look at 16 families and their weekly
money spends for the food. I advice to pay attention not only to the
amount of money, but also on the variation of food and number of
people in family.
