More than three billion people globally are eating too much or too little. But we can fix our faulty food system (The Telegraph)

The Telegraph (UK) published an opinion by Kalle Hirvonen, a Senior Research Fellow and co-author  (with Derek Headey) of the study, Affordability of the EAT-Lancet reference diet: A global analysis. Hirvonen writes that after using the cheapest locally available items in each food group in each country, the study found that at least 1.58 billion people globally could not possibly afford to follow the EAT-Lancet diet. For the world’s poorest consumers rather than eating a diverse and nutritious diet, the poor typically eat an affordable, near-subsistence diet.
