Food is any substance consumed to provide nutritional support for the body. 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 in an effort to produce energy, maintain life, or stimulate growth.*
Food also helps define a culture. Here in New Orleans, we are known for our food, espeically our seafood. Just about anything we cook has some sort of spice to it. New Orleans loves food. You can not visit or live here and not feel the same way. It's in our blood. Is it in yours?
