"Nothing makes us feel connected quite like sharing a meal together. On
February 24th at 12pm Eastern Standard Time, thousands of strangers from
around the world will sit down for a bite in unison and capture a
shared experience at the exact same time. Take a photograph of yourself
with your meal and mail it back to us. These simultaneous snapshots –
self-portraits of people and their foods – will be exhibited in our
storefront project space and made available online. Our aim is to
inspire a feeling of community across geographic and cultural
boundaries. So wherever you may be on February 24th at 12pm, keep your
camera handy and something delicious nearby – and remember that
thousands of strangers, both near and far, are sharing that meal with
you." -

This project is intended to being awareness to world hunger. It is too late to participate in the exhibit but it's is never too late to participate in the solution! If you want to make a difference visit
Action Against Hunger to find out what you can do.
I don't do self portraits very well so I only took a photo of my meal. I thought what would be more interesting is a photo of an empty plate so I took one of those too.
