Today is national food day and it would be rude not to celebrate it! π
We are lucky as we have enough food but itβs also a day to send thoughts to others who donβt have enough food. 1 in 3 people in the world suffer from malnutrition according to the world food program which is horrifying in this day and age and also when there is so much food waste.
βOne of the themes of the day aims to help people to βEat Real.β This theme is defined by βcutting back on sugar drinks, overly salted packaged foods and fatty, factory-farmed meats in favor of vegetables, fruits, whole grains and sustainably raised protein.β The observance involves some of the countryβs most prominent food activists. Their vision includes food that can be healthy, affordable and produced. At the same time, the goal is to produce food with care for the environment, farm animals and the people who grow, harvest and serve it in mindβ.
Enjoy your day.

I can definitely celebrate National Food Day that's for sure, I seem to be quite hungry today although I've only had a mocha as yet, that is my little treat and a little of what you fancy doesn't harm as I do eat healthily all the other times.
Yes we certainly have to think about those that don't have enough food, we are so fortunate and it's good to take time and think about those that don't have the food. We have a donation box at our local Tesco for the homeless and I'm going to start to put something in there each week - Tesco do say 'every little helps'
Have a lovely day Ali and thank you for posting.
This is a very good point Ali we should indeed think of those less fortunate than us as we take so many things for granted.
