World leaders prepared for talks on food security and the threat of starvation facing millions by eating a six-course meal featuring truffles and a different wine to match each course. At talks on Friday, the US will push G8 leaders meeting in L'Aquila, Italy, to commit to a $15 billion fund to be used to invest in improving farming standards in developing countries. Britain would contribute $1.8 billion. Gordon Brown said: "There is a need to show the world we will take action to stop what is a farming and food emergency."But before talkes on hunger, the assembled world leaders on Thursday sat down to a gala diner prepared by Michele Persechini, personal chef to Silvio Berlusoni, Italy's billionaire prime minister.
