One can easily assume that food in itself, no matter what the ingredients, is a natural thing. As in, the truth behind food lies in its state as being consumed or being a consumable. The truth though is, just because we can consume it doesn't mean we have to or want to. Food can actually be considered a habit, a custom, a necessity, an addiction.
Much of our society today lives and drives around consumption. We almost to a large extent live to consume. No matter what though, if our society changed its course to not do so, then only will we know what else life has to offer. To be at peace with few or nothing and to live in the present moment instead.
I think we are doing ourselves a disservice by being so dependent upon gluttony. We should celebrate life with only what we need.
