Pranks? This beautiful display of different peoples and their ideal base of sustenance, a joke? What idiot wrote this? The pictures may be idealized in your mind, but what story of truth and justice is not so? These photos are true to what is real amongst this diverse world. Shame on your turd copywriters for trying to say otherwise – “Oh, look! western culture forces us to vacuum up frozen foods and sodas”. Just stop your imperialistic invasion of other people.
