Over the summer, Time Magazine ran a two-part photo essay called 'What the World Eats'. It's a look at the weekly food baskets of various families around the world and it's fascinating. The links to the whole series are here and here, but I'm posting a couple for quick reference.
Egypt - cost to feed this family per week: $68.53
U.S. - cost to feed this family per week: $341.98
Chad - cost to feed this family per week: $1.23
