The Evolution of FOOD

The Beginning

• Food has been around for a very long time as it is necessary to survive

History

• Almost everyone for a very long time were farmers because they needed to grow their own food to survive

Around the world many people still dedicate their lives to farming to provide for themselves and their family

Today

• The majority of people today in the developed world are not farmers

This has been a good thing as we have made great advances in technology and medicine

But what have we lost in the meantime?

Have we lost the appreciation for the food we have?

Many of these farmers are from third world, developing countries

Some of these people have next to nothing

But they are grateful for everything they have

Those who had to farm their own food never lost appreciation for what they had

They knew they worked hard for it.

Today we can simply go to the store and buy what we need

This is very convenient

But it can lead to us taking it for granted

Most of us don't think of how little some others have compared to us.

Not all of us can help those around the world directly

But we can all choose to change

We can choose appreciate what we have

We can choose to complain less

So next time you go to the fridge and grumble that there is nothing there...

Don't.
