This was a really fun segment we planned for Connect the World. It's amazing how a plate of food has an intricate story to tell, a tale of journeys, adaptation, invention, and nostalgia. Take a look below. We'll have more of these segments coming up on the show in the next few weeks.

LONDON, England - After months of planning and weeks of rehearsals, here we are. Eight hours from now, Connect the World will go on air. [cnn-photo-caption image=http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/2009/images/04/20/art.connect.jpg

I know you'll join us on air tonight, but we wish you could feel the buzz in the newsroom right now:  It's electric; the excitement is very palpable.

As of this writing, we have absolutely no idea what our lead will be.  A Connects lead has to have legs that take it around the world.  Let's see what happens.

Back to work, and monitoring the news wires - join us for the launch, we promise it'll be exciting, unique, and entertaining.  Stay connected!
