Manage episode 458257397 series 2434984
After a decade of war has devastated Syria's agriculture industry, farmers are hoping to regrow their crops... and they're turning to a concrete bunker in Norway to do it. The Global Seed Vault houses seeds from more than 60 countries, safeguarding them against war and natural disaster. Syria is the first country to make a withdrawal to restore the plants it lost.
And: British grocery stores are being increasingly targeted by organized crime, with thieves stealing whole shelves of food and drink to resell. Stores are turning to GPS tags, undercover security guards, and specialized police units to protect their staff and products.
Also: The Michelin Guide is considered the foremost authority on fine dining. But it doesn't just review high-end restaurants. It granted one of its coveted stars to a street-side taco stand in Mexico City, leading to long lineups as foodies from around the world came looking for a taste of authentic — and delicious — Mexican food.
Plus: A mayor invites residents on walks to discuss local issues and stay healthy, South India's disappearing Iranian cafés, and Sweden's candy obsession.
