| Street Food - Beijing - 14 July 08 - Part 1 |
 |
China's economy is expanding at an astounding rate
- but its waistlines are too.
The food of the streets tells the story of a
culture torn between tradition and modernity, the
customs of an ancient past competing with the
convenience age of the new. What will survive and
what will be lost? In a China which has gone
within two generations from mass starvation to
mass obesity, what does the future hold?
