Take a good look at the food that is eaten in one week and how much is spend…

Italy: The Manzo family of Sicily
Food for one week: 214.36 Euros or $260.11

United States: The Revis Family of North Carolina
Food for one week $341.98

Germany: The Melander family of Bargteheide
Food for one week: 375.39 Euros or $500.07

Chad: The Aboubakar family of Breidjing Camp
Food expenditure for one week: 685 CFA Francs or $1.23


If the family in Germany didn’t eat for ONE week, the family in Chad could eat for 6 years….
