World Hunger

November 16, 2006 - 9:29pm

With Thanksgiving around the corner, here's a powerful thing to think about. It puts the world in perspective.

If 20 people sit down at your table, representing the world's population:
3 would be served a gourmet, multi-course meal, while sitting at decorated table and a cushioned chair.
5 would eat rice and beans with a fork and sit on a simple cushion
12 would wait in line to receive a small portion of rice that they would eat with their hands while sitting on the floor.
