What do children eat in different countries of the world: photo project "Daily Bread"

Now the number one topic is food in Ukrainian school canteens. From January 1, they began to cook according to a new menu developed by the famous culinary specialist Yevgeny Klopotenko and First Lady Elena Zelenskaya. Details can be read on the all-Ukrainian educational platform "Know". But if you briefly state the essence, then it boils down to the fact that in the diet of children there should be less salt, sugar, bakery products, more meat, vegetables and fruits.

Certainly a commendable initiative. But so far, its implementation is very lame. Chefs unaccustomed to cooking new recipes often fall short, resulting in a tasteless brew that many children don't want to eat.

In the meantime, Ukrainian schools and parent chats are buzzing with the discussion of the school menu, it is interesting to look into the plate of children from around the world. What do they eat? And this will help the project "Daily Bread" by photographer Gregg Segal. He traveled around the world for four years and took photographs of children with their traditional food. And I tracked such an interesting trend: the poorer the nation, the healthier the food on the plates of children. In this case, preference is given to cereals, fish, nuts, vegetables and fruits. But the richer the country, the worse things are with the children's diet. It has a lot of bakery products, sweets, fast food, which is naturally displayed on the figure and well-being of the child. See for yourself.
