Sarajevo, Bosnia: Supermarket
Ensada Dudo and her husband Rasim shop in one of the city's new gleaming stores. Although they continue to patronize the city's traditional butchers and outdoor green markets, the Dudos have come to rely more and more on the low prices and ample choices provided by big grocery stores.

The Dudos vividly remember the starvation their city endured during the many years of war. They are grateful that they can now buy enough food to fill up Rasim's taxi.



Hargesia, Somalia: Butchers' Market

Festival days are occasions for lavish feasts, for which Guatemalan families raise turkeys and sheep.



Kunming, China: Noodle Shop
Cooked in the celebrated style of the city of Guiyang (which is located 300 miles away), these egg noodles are served in a spicy broth and topped with chicken, beef, shiitake mushrooms or - most famously - pig intestines and blood.



Dubai, United Arab Emirates: Stovetop Recipe
A mother prepares lunch in a kitchen building separate from her family's home. She is covered from head to toe, as she would be in public, because she is entertaining guests from outside her family.

Riverview, Australia: Take-Out Time
Three teenage girls enjoy the drinks and free gifts that came with their McDonald's Happy Meals. Although all three have roots in the Aboriginal community, they have little interest in outback cuisine. Mackas (Aussie slang for McDonald's) is presently their culinary mecca.

The Sobczynscy family watches a neighbor pour a round of absinthe, a strong green liqueur flavored with wormwood and anise.
