Two interesting articles that highlight the ways in which the poor are being hit by escalating food prices–their pocketbooks, and their reputations.

1. This one from the NY Times, which discusses how food stamps aren't going as far.

2. This one from Foreign Policy.com, which discusses how, in conversations about how meat eating in poor countries such as India is rising, these poor countries are unfairly taking the blame for rising food prices.
