Everywhere on planet Earth where people can be found, there are different ways of preparing and eating food. Bursting with energy and fascinating facts, the World of ... series looks at what we have in common, and celebrates our differences. Learn about where food comes from, and what we grow, farm, forage, process or bake in order to eat. In this book you will discover what was popular at Roman banquets (roasted dormice anyone?) and where staple foods like potatoes originally come from. Explore dishes and food traditions from every corner of the planet.
