  • Kelvin Lester, a floor supervisor at a meat processing company with his typical day's worth of food at his kitchen table in Grand Meadow, Minnesota. (From the book What I Eat: Around the World in 80 Diets.) The caloric value of his typical day's worth of food in June was 2,600 kcals. He is 44 years of age; 5 feet, 11 inches tall; and 195 pounds.

With more than 20 years of experience grinding beef at the Rochester Meat Company, Kelvin says he always grills hamburgers?no matter who has ground them?until they are well-done, because any contamination is most easily rendered harmless by thorough cooking, meaning cooking them to an internal temperature of at least 160 degrees Fahrenheit.

She is 45 years of age; 5 feet, 1.5 inches tall; and 123 pounds.  Millie's quest for health includes yoga, a vegan diet, and topical applications of her own urine, as well as a daily glassful.  She has practiced Shivambu (sometimes spelled ?Sivambu?), which is the drinking of one's own first morning urine?200 cc in her practice?as a curative and preventative measure, for over 15 years. Millie applies urine to her skin as well, for the same reasons. Her husband Abhik has tried Shivambu and she helped her children to practice it when they were young, but currently only Millie practices urine therapy in her family. MODEL RELEASED.

  • Chen Zhen, a university student, with her typical day's worth of food on Nanjing East Road in Shanghai, China. (From the book What I Eat: Around the World in 80 Diets.) The caloric value of her typical day's worth of food in June was 2600 kcals. She is 20 years of age; 5 feet, 5 inches tall and 106 pounds.  Although she doesn't care for noodles or rice, a special rice roll is her favorite snack: black glutinous rice wrapped around youtiao (fried bread), pickled vegetables, mustard greens, and flosslike threads of dried pork. Zhen and her friends eat at KFC about three times a week, something they couldn't afford without the company's coupons. Meanwhile, her father and grandparents, who live in a tiny apartment in northeast Shanghai, go without meat during the week so they can afford to share a special meal with Zhen on her weekend visits.

  • Xu Zhipeng, a freelance computer graphics artist and Internet gamer, with his typical day's worth of food in his rented chair at the Ming Wang Internet Café in Shanghai, China. (From the book What I Eat: Around the World in 80 Diets.) The caloric value of his day's worth of food in June was 1600 kcals. He is 23 years of age; 6 feet, 2 inches and 157 pounds.  He lives at his computer station, day and night, sleeping there when he's tired and showering once a week at a friend's apartment. His longest continuous game lasted three days and nights. When he tires of gaming at the café he reads fantasy books. ?It's nice to rest your eyes on a book,? he says, even though he's reading it online. China has more than 300 million Internet users?a number close to the entire population of the United States.

  • João Agustinho Cardoso, a fisherman, in his floating house on a branch of the Solimoes River with his typical day's worth of food in  Manacapuru, Brazil. (From the book What I Eat: Around the World in 80 Diets.) The caloric value of his day's worth of food for a typical day in the month of November was 5200 kcals. He is 69 years of age; 5 feet 2.5 inches tall and 140 pounds.  João's new house has no electricity and the toilet is simply the end of the big balsa wood logs the house is floating on. There is, however, running water, and plenty of it, in the half-mile-wide branch of the river they live on. Unfortunately the water is not potable, but it is teeming with fish, including piranha, which can make swimming during the early morning or evening worrisome. The curimata in the photo is just one of dozens of species that makes its way onto João's table. Absent from his daily diet are any alcoholic or caffeinated beverages, eschewed by his Seventh-day Adventist religion.  MODEL RELEASED.

  • Faith D'Aluisio, one of the authors of the book What I Eat: Around the World in 80 Diets, weighs the food items consumed by Saleh Abdul Fadlallah at Birqash Camel Market, outside Cairo, Egypt. (From the book What I Eat: Around the World in 80 Diets.)  Contrary to popular belief, camels’ humps don’t 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.
