World Food Programme Fighting Hunger Worldwide

This is no ordinary bread!

In episode three, Abeer focuses her attention on traditional Egyptian 'baladi' bread - a central part of the diet of millions of Egyptians. It's also an ideal channel for addressing the lack of iron in the diet of many poor Egyptians. WFP is helping the government to put iron and other minerals into some of the flour used for the subsidised staple food. This means that the poor - those most exposed to malnutrition - will automatically benefit.
