Food
Food is any substance consumed to provide nutritional support for an organism. It is usually of plant or animal origin, and contains essential nutrients, such as carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins, or minerals. The substance is ingested by an organism and assimilated by the organism's cells to provide energy, maintain life, or stimulate growth.

There are people in the world so hungry, that God cannot appear to them except in the form of bread.
Mahatma Gandhi The Spirituality of Bread p. 26

It is glad that it is not clear as to what is sufficient for the moderation of health, so that under the pretense of health it may conceal its projects for pleasure.
Augustine, Confessions, as translated by A. Outler, Book 10, Chapter 31, p. 197
