Hungry Planet: What the World Eats by photographer Peter Menzel is a fantastic book that has been published in various forms by Material World since 2005. It looks like there’s a new edition out as the book has received a fair bit of attention in the British press this week.
The book is basically a photo essay looking at what 30+ families, from Chad to California, consume in terms of food and drink during an average week and it makes for fascinating viewing (or reading if you prefer!).
