He has more reason than most to watch his diet, as he's suffered two heart attacks?both in the cab of his truck. The trucker travels with his best friend and constant companion, a five-year-old shar pei dog, named Imperial Fancy Pants, who gets his own McDonald's burger and splits the fries with Conrad. From the book What I Eat: Around the World in 80 Diets. (Please note that the calorie total is not a daily caloric average. See his chapter, and the methodology, in the book for more information). MODEL RELEASED...Note: The authors used a typical recent day as a starting point for their interviews with 80 people in 30 countries. They specifically chose not to cover daily caloric averages, as they wanted to include some extreme examples of eating, like one woman's diet on a bingeing day or the small number of calories a herder in Kenya ate during extreme drought. The texts in the book provide the context for the photographs, detailing each person's diet, culture, and circumstance at the moment they were photographed: a snapshot in time. A complete methodology is available in the book.

For the majority of Palestinians, travel to and from East Jerusalem now requires special permits from the Israeli government?often difficult or impossible to obtain. MODEL RELEASED.

  • Caterpillar fungus, sold in markets and traditional medicine dispensaries throughout China was available here in the Qing Ping Market in Guangzhou until the market was closed in the early 2000's. The parasitic fungus Cordyceps sinensis attacks the larvae of the ghost moth Hepialus armoricanus, and grows into the body of the caterpillar. The fungus literally takes over the caterpillar, forming a hard, brown, mummy-like fungus sculpture of the caterpillar. The fungus is used to treat asthma, colds, jaundice, and tuberculosis and is very expensive: It sells for 4,000 yuan ($500 U.S.) per pound. (See "Fungus in your tea" on page 89 of Man Eating Bugs)
