Egypt, the most populous Arab country, is heavily dependent on food imports to feed its fast-growing population. Should it produce more of its own? Ed Butler tries out the high-carb Egyptian diet that keeps people's stomachs full - for now. He hears from food security expert Kimberly Flowers, director of Global Food Security Project at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, about the challenges facing countries like Egypt. And he visits Adel El Shentenawy, the co-founder of Egyptian Hydrofarms, a company growing salad in the desert.
