Food

    Food takes in the full spectrum of human experience - from our highest virtues to our basest vices, from the painful ache of hunger to the blissful glow of satisfaction. Food works on multiple levels. In its most elementary form, food is all about nutrition. It is our source of energy, the fuel for our activity. And yet, it is also so much more. Food is the ritual which structures our day, the way in which we celebrate our blessings and mourn our losses. Food is a symbol of abundance, a sign of plenty, recalling the harvest festivals of old. Food represents the habits of generations past and the legacies for generations to come.
