What I Eat

What I Eat displays a variety of diets from around the world. It not only shows physical difference in people, but also shows diversity in religion, income, health, preferences, etc. This book gives a glimpse of people’s identity through food, which has a pivotal role in society. These photos, along with their captions, give insight into their lives and made me reflect my own. The photos I looked at made me feel grateful for the abundance of food available to me along with my good health, but also made me feel more proud and open about my own identity and heritage. What I Eat shows a common thread among all humans, but presents a new perspective for each. Everyone around the world eats, but factors like customs and culture drastically change diets and appearances. From the cautious lifeguard, Bruce Hopkins, to the mother living with HIV/AIDS, Marble Moahi, I am like them.
