what the world eats

TIME tends to do such an amazing job with their photo essays. I can easily pass an afternoon going through their archives. In this old series, the essay explores what families in different parts of the world eat and how much it costs for the week. The images of the families with their food are striking, particularly when you compare the different pictures.
