FOOD

Initially, the first thing that comes to my mind when the word 'food' is mentioned is the obvious. Greasy slices of delicious pizza, rich,decadent chocolate cake, indulgent delights that rot the teeth with the slightest mention.

But then I began to think,what is food? And what does it truely mean to us? People argue 'we are what eat.' Are we ruled by convience? Regardless of what is in the food or how it has been made, do we all abandon our morals because its simply cheap?

Years ago I became a vegetarian, as the way meat was mass produced disgusted me. In no way am I a saint with what I eat, but I thought something as simple as that could really make a difference. This is probably the main priority for me, but being healthy and not costing me too much also comes into play.

Although it would be wonderful if we could all live by ethical standards and buy fresh produce or organic foods, unfortunately that is not the case. After all its alot easier to buy that $1 slice of pizza than a salad from Wholefoods...
