To eat or not to eat,
it's sometimes a dilemma,
never have our ancestors worried,
about serving food in their plates.
With mixing of cultures,
learned varieties of dishes,
born, nurtured in different cultures,
influenced by climates and traditions.
With choices many, one may wonder...
Why not indulge in worldly pleasures,
explore cuisines, have exciting ventures,
appease our curiosities for adventures.
But things are not as easy,
there are concerns making us queasy,
risks of its quality and quantities,
that restrict us from trying delicacies.
Then there are cultural bindings,
ethical choices from our conscience,
making us aware, mindful of actions,
choosing for nourishment and sustenance.
To eat or not to eat,
we don't want it to be a blunder,
still I know for a fact,
I feel more at peace...with a little hunger.
