Who am I?

I’m currently a junior at Boston University studying biological anthropology. I’m interested in looking beyond the USDA’s food pyramid and exploring how people around the world eat. In response to the confusion and debates on what is the “best” diet to follow, I’ve decided to start a blog to address the variety of diets people follow around the world (and maybe also as an excuse to post mouth-watering dishes from different parts of the world).
Some questions that popped in my head which inspired this blog: How does the way we eat influence our biology? While humans are 99.9% identical in our genetic make-up, is that 0.1% difference reflected in different diets around the world?
