Gastronomer

World Hunger Day

 

Gastronomer.co is committed to making positive impact when where we can. According to the figures released by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization there are an estimated 870 million people out of the 7.1 billion people in the world.  Each day one in eight women, children and men suffering from chronic undernourishment.  Recent estimates from the World Bank states that 1,345 million disadvantaged people in developing countries live on $1.25 a day or less.

 

For World Hunger day we are taking the challenge to create meals that do not exceed the budget of £1 a day for five days (£1=$1.68=1.23 euros; five days £5=$8.40=6,15 euros).  The reality that in every country families are facing with having to provide nutritious food with severely limited economic resources.  Gastronomy is not about excess but instead about making the most out of what food resources are available.

 

Every month we will create recipes that respect a budget of £1 per day.  We ask everyone to join us in remembering that we are all apart of the global community and have a responsibility to make a positive impact on current and future generations of Gastronomers.
