Grönland, Emil Madsen, der Jäger im ewigen Eis, vor seinen schlafenden Schlittenhunden mit seiner typischen Tagesration an Lebensmitteln. Bewaffnet mit zwei Büchsen, einer Flinte und dem überlieferten Wissensschatz vieler Generationen ist Emil willens und in der Lage, sich und seine familie durch die Jagd zu ernähren. Ende mai scheint die Sonne rund um die Uhr hier oben am Polarkreis, die Temperatur steigt mittags über den Gefrierpunkt, sodass das Eis aufbricht oder in den Scoresbysund im Hintergrund zurückweicht. Emil Madsen, a seal hunter, with his typical dayÕs worth of food on the sea ice in front of his sleeping sled dogs near Cap Hope village, Greenland. (From the book What I Eat: Around the World in 80 Diets.) The caloric value of his typical day's worth of food in May was 6500 kcals. He is 40 years of age; 5 feet, 8.5 inches tall; and 170 pounds. Armed with two rifles, a shotgun, and generations of survival knowledge passed on by his father (also a seal hunter), Emil is ready and able to feed himself and his family. Sunny days in May bring 24-hour daylight at this latitude near the Arctic CircleÑmidday temperatures above freezing cause the ice to retreat or break off into Scoresby Sound, seen behind him. Although wild game is his favorite, Emil packs bread, jam, margarine, coffee, tea, sugar, and onions on his hunting trips. He uses a kerosene stove, rather than burning seal fat, as was traditional, to cook his food and to melt snow for water. Seal hunter Emil Madsen, 40, is one of the few full-time hunters on the sparsely populated eastern coast of Greenland, and even he does extra duty as an indigenous part-owner in a travel agency.

He sleeps on a bench along with many other young boys in the same straights. He buys food from the local sidewalk vendors who cater to the impoverished in the city. They charge him about 20 Taka (0.30 USD) for a plate of rice and vegetable curries. He can earn about 50 to 80 Taka a day carrying bags, but there is always the danger that older boys and official train coolies will beat him and steal his money. He went to sleep one night a week after he arrived, and awakened to find that the 50 Taka in his pocket had been stolen. MODEL RELEASED.

Although homegrown vegetables and rice are her staples, chicken feathers and a bowl that held scalding water for easier feather plucking are clues to the meat course of a special meal for visitors. In this region, each rural family is its own little food factory and benefits from thousands of years of agricultural knowledge passed down from generation to generation. MODEL RELEASED.

With no tables or chairs, Ermelinda cooks all the familyÕs meals while kneeling over the hearth on the earthen floor, tending an open fire of sticks and straw. Guinea pigs that skitter about looking for scraps or spilled grain will eventually end up on the fire themselves when the family eats them for a holiday treat. Because there is no chimney, the beams and thatch roof are blackened by smoke. Unvented smoke from cooking fires accounts for a high level of respiratory disease and, in one study in rural Ecuador, was accountable for half of infant mortality. MODEL RELEASED.

Contrary to popular belief, camelsÕ humps donÕt store water; they are a reservoir of fatty tissue that minimizes heat-trapping insulation in the rest of their bodies; the dromedary, or Arabian camel, has a single hump, while Asian camels have two. Camels are well suited for desert climes: their long legs and huge, two-toed feet with leathery pads enable them to walk easily in sand, and their eyelids, nostrils, and thick coat protect them from heat and blowing sand. These characteristics, along with their ability to eat thorny vegetation and derive sufficient moisture from tough green herbage, allow camels to survive in very inhospitable terrain. MODEL RELEASED.

Sie spricht ganz offen darüber, dass bei ihr die Esssucht an die Stelle einer Drogensucht getreten ist, bezeichnet sich selbst als "Schokoholikerin", während sie am Ende des Fotoshootings begeistert einen Schokoladenkuchen verschlingt. Ihr Gewicht ging in den vergangenen Jahren jo-jomäßig auf und ab. Jill McTighe, a mother and school aide, with a day's worth of food on a bingeing day, in her kitchen in Willesden, northwest London, United Kingdom. (From the book What I Eat: Around the World in 80 Diets.) The caloric value of her day's worth of food on a "bingeing" day in the month of September was 12300 kcals. The calorie total is not a daily caloric average. Jill is 31 years old; 5 feet, 5 inches tall; and 230 pounds. Honest about her food addiction replacing a drug habit, Jill joked about being a chocoholic as she enthusiastically downed a piece of chocolate cake at the end of the photo session. Her weight has yo-yoed over the years and at the time of the picture she was near her heaviest; walking her children to school every day was the sole reason she didnÕt weigh more. She says this photo experience was a catalyst for beginning a healthier diet for herself and her family. ÒDo I cook? Yes, but not cakes. I roast. Nothing ever, ever is fat-fried!Ó MODEL RELEASED.
