Category: miscellaneousSteve @ 15:38 pm

Ever wonder what families around the world eat in a week and how much it costs?  Peter Menzel took a look and published the results in Hungry Planet: What the World Eats Food for a Week.  It’s also available as a photogallery on the Time site.  The menu is as varied as you might expect and weekly spending varies from a high of $500.07 (Euro equivalent) in Germany down to $1.23 in a Chadian refugee camp.
