G8 Leaders Dine on 18 Course Meal While Discussing World Hunger

And speaking of fat cats! The G8 summit discussed the problem if the global food crisis. You know what a crisis is, a critical shortage of food as in starvation. They dined on an 18 course meal! Glad to know they can identify with the problem.

Years ago I attended an event called a World Feast. It was promoted as a sampling or typical foods from around the world. As we entered the room, some people, a very few, were given gold tickets and escorted to a head table, raised above the room on a platform. Here they were served a sumptuous feast with plenty of wine and lavish proportions.

The rest of us were seated at simple tables and served a bowl of rice and a glass of water.

This was the point, to show how most of the world eats and how few people consume most of the worlds food.

Perhaps that would be a better meal for the G8 to dine on?

UK Daily Mail printed the menu. Here.
