The world already produces more than enough food to feed everyone. The problem is getting the food to those who need it. Corrupt govt's use food distribution as a political weapon, feeding those who support it and letting starve those who are members of a despised racial, ethnic, religious or political class.

Also, govt's with poor economies also have very poor infrastructure, further hampering food distribution.

Poor economies also means that productivity is very low because farmers don't have access to fertilizer or modern equipment, and/or only have infertile ground to try to raise crops in.

Ironically, free food aid can actually make the situation worse, by driving local farmers out of business. When some country gives your village free food, why would anyone want to buy it from you? And so the local farmers are driven out of business, and the populace becomes utterly dependent on the hand-outs.

There are no easy answers to ending world hunger. But producing _enough_ food is something we already do.

As amazing as the bread may be, you still need to pay for it and transport it, distribute it properly etc.

Some may be allergic to it, and in some places, not even safe drinking water is available...
