The What the World Eats for Breakfast video takes people around the globe one meal at a time. Not everyone enjoys eggs and bacon for their morning meal, in fact, some countries appear to bask in better breakfasts than those Western staples. In Egypt, for instance, pita bread is served with a full medame, a dish of cooked and mashed fava beans served with vegetable oil, cumin and chopped greens.
Artfully arranged on white plates that act as blank canvases, the meals showcased in the What the World Eats for Breakfast video were put together by the team over at Buzzfeed. For those who have never travelled outside of their own bubble will especially be interested in how different his mealtime can be. At the end, it asks, "What's for lunch?'
