  • Kelvin Lester maneuvers a 2,000-pound bin of ?50s? (carcass trimmings that are half fat) toward the grinding and blending machines at the Rochester Meat Company in Grand Meadow, Minnesota. (From the book What I Eat: Around the World in 80 Diets.) Less desirable trimmings with a higher fat content are ground into blends with different percentages of lean meat. The ton of 50s is added to other leaner cuts, and sometimes reconstituted beef fat?which is even cheaper?is mixed in as well.

  • Cutting fabric at the Ananta apparel factory where Ruma Akhter works as a seamstress. (Ruma Akhter is featured in the book What I Eat: Around the World in 80 Diets) The factory is located on Elephant Road, downtown Dhaka, Bangladesh. While nearly half of Bangladesh's population is employed in agriculture, in recent years the economic engine of Bangladesh has been its garment industry, and the country is now the world's fourth largest clothing exporter, ahead of India and the United States. Dependent on exports and fearing international sanctions, Bangladesh's garment industry has implemented rules outlawing child labor and setting standards for humane working conditions.
