Food:

– an ingredient for life
– a must for sustenance
– what both the poor and the rich need to survive
– sometimes scarce and unavailable to some people
– an item that ailing children scramble for in refugee camps
– an item that gets wasted by some
– the lifeblood of humanity
– providing nourishment that keeps body and soul together
– the right kind, will enrich your body system
– the wrong type, can upset your body system
- very curative
– relevant to reducing poverty
– an index for measuring success in under-nourished communities
– can make one angry
– can make one happy
– a child’s delight
– a mother’s delight when appreciated
– everybody’s delight when well done
– a child's need
- necessary for fulfilling MDGs in developing countries

Food - everybody needs it
Good food – a must for everyone!
