Just a few days ago, Gordon Brown was urging us all to stop wasting food and combat rising prices and a global shortage of provisions, but that was before the Prime Minister and other world leaders sat down to an 18-course gastronomic extravaganza at a G8 summit in Japan, which is focusing on the food crisis. What next, a women's rights conference live rape?The dinner, and a six-course lunch, included delicacies such as caviar, milkfed lamb, sea urchin and tuna, with champagne and wines flown in from Europe and the U.S. Naturally, the extravagance of the menus drew disapproval from critics who thought it hypocritical to produce such a lavish meal when world food supplies are under threat. Last night's dinner menu was created by Katsuhiro Nakamura, the first Japanese chef to win a Michelin star. It was themed: Hokkaido, blessings of the Earth and the sea...and the ruch and privledged.
