First of all you guys need to relax a little bet and stop pointing in bad way to a great country and great nation. I was born and raised in Alexandria Egypt and I'm coptic as well I think that kid just waneted some attention or his family are just some white trash that want to make some money over this!! In the other hand the Father from the the host bfamily seems to be an idiot for what he said "hour and half" that's wrong statement for him saying eats like "6 people" it's an expretion we use in Egypt to show how healthy he was eating the same when american saye eats like a horse I don't belive any of you are horses!!!!
Finally ther are at least 10 McDonalds in Alexandria alone and 10 KFC's and big mac meal will cost that lier not more than $3!!! so don't tell me this crab about starving him!!! plus Egyptian are so genuros specially when it comes to food!!
be more educated and look up Alexandria on line it's one of the most amazing city in the world.
