Lordy! ...what a shocking disparity of both foodstuff types and
amounts. That a family in Chad can even survive on that pittance of
food is astonishing. No Atkins, there! I guess it's no surprise that
food in US, UK, Japan, and China, have about the same percent of
pre-processed foods. Italy seemed only country of "Western" nations
to prefer whole real foods. A French example would have been
interesting.
