gourmet shock

The obesity quotient in the US is very high, especially in places like Detroit.What i see there and on TV in many cookery shows is the amount of food that one dumps in the bin if not found to be OK as per the show standards.Now!Food has to be consumed based on the capacity one has ,and going by the norms your stomach can accommodate food as big as the size of a closed fist.( That's the maximum one can ingress at any one point). How ever we see the contestants or the people at large waste so much of food that could be useful to feed a few 100 mouths.Why don't we think before we take the quantity on the plate we wish to eat out of?

The Masterchef USA on which (apart from the F words and cuss remarks) the food dumped is really sad.Agreed one has to be competitive and all that ,but that doesn't mean what's prepared is not edible !!I see the same in many Indian Weddings and parties where we don't respect the food and allow it to go waste.

Hope people change and provide more food to the needy and reduce the stress on farmers to produce more and more to meet the ever increasing mouths waiting to be fed in this world.
