Pretty cool photo essay.
I learned a couple of things:
Everyone in the world eats bananas.
I need to bone up on my geography.

very cool. I was kinda shocked to see Coke in Sicilian family's home (shows how ignorant I am). I just think of soda pop being an American thing w/the rest of the world frowning upon us and our unhealthy junk food, etc. while they drink water, tea, or something not as sugar, caffeine, carbohydrate laden.

It is the regional differences that I like to see, such as peanut butter, nutella and vegimite.

Kursk, thanks for clearing that up. I am all about cultural differences and all but I was hoping the dog in the picture was a member of the family and not on the menu.

Maybe they are just fattening him up for "Boxers Day"

$1.23 doesn't even cover my container of coffee on the way to work.
