Stuffed And Starved

Trama

But in countries locked in a vicious cycle of poverty, there is no choice. There is no food. Raj Patel shows us that these two extremes are deeply and inextricably linked. In Stuffed and Starved, he asks us to think about the way our food comes to us, to understand how what we buy directly affects the world’s poorest citizens and to recognize how we ourselves are poisoned by our choices.
