Photographer Peter Menzel and his wife, writer Faith D’Alusio, were hungry to learn how the rest of the world eats. So they took it upon themselves to find out. The couple set out to on a trip around the world, traveling to 24 different countries. Throughout their travels they shopped, cooked, and ate with 30 families. Paying close attention to each detail, tradition, and dish, they learned how and what each family eats for one week.
The result of the their globetrotting, stomach indulging journey is the book, Hungry Planet: What the World Eats. This stunning and insightful collection introduces its viewers to a powerful conversation on culture, food, and family. It’s a gentle reminder that despite our geographic, religious, or ethnic differences, we are all from the same family.
