Mr.Hacker Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Food is connection, eating brings us closer to others and right now it is what we need the most. In difficulties, people look for ways to deal with the changes. These days we know that we must be physically far away, away from our "system" (friends, family) to which we turn when there are difficulties. In these months we have learned to connect in different ways. We do the best we can. One way to deal with situations is through food. Food is emotional, it has been a social connector of the human being for a long time. Offering food is part of the social connection of giving-receiving, creating bonds with others. Inviting someone to eat, to celebrate an event (such as a party, wedding, cocktail) is to generate interpersonal closeness. Patterns of culture, family influence, networking, etc. enter. With food we seek to be good hosts, considerate people, we show our personal beliefs, even religious. Since the beginning of humanity... whoever harvested something shared or exchanged it with his neighbors so that both had variety. Then they sold it... then they started the exchange centers that we now know as markets. Eating brings us closer. From sharing a favorite recipe or launching a new one, presenting a beautiful dish, setting a special table with freshly ironed napkins and taking out our favorite decorations. So even though we are far away, we can connect with the few that are close to us. https://dilmun.mx/blogs/blog/la-comida-es-conexion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
