So, 30 (or even 20) years ago we lived in a food starved world. The poor died of starvation, and the middle class (and even the rich) conserved food like gold. Why, 50 years back, servants in rural area were not paid in cash, but merely provided two square meals. The only time specialty dish was cooked was during festivals or when guests visited. And this food came at a huge sacrifice for a household. Back then, to waste food meant disrespecting food.
But today is different. We are living in a food abundant world. Nobody dies of starvation (sure, there are people who are malnourished, bur nobody dies of starvation; langars, some temples, NGOs and other good samaritans serve good food to any and everybody no questions asked) Today, people die of over eating. Your cholesterol, blood pressure, diabetes, heart ailments are all a result of over eating.
So, for God's sake, stop forcing food into your stomach at dinner table. For starters, while food is nourishment, excess food is poison. Two, you are constantly wasting food. Touch your heart and tell me you don't throw old forgotten food from the refrigerator every two weeks, and past expiry packed food every three months. No there is nothing wrong with it. Just don't turn wasting food into a great crime at the dinner table. Throw out the excess food.
Before, I sign off, by feeding your left over junk food to dogs and cats, do u realise that you are making the cats and dogs in the city diabetic? (sure, not all dogs, just the ones that u feed everyday). If u do want to feed the dogs, give them food that is good for them. Meat. God made them carnivorous, you see
