8、ns, “First we eat, then we do everything else.”This is why each year we celebrate World Food Day, which falls on Oct. 16. But despite the importance of food around the world, food cultures often differ greatly from country to country. For example, things like chicken feet, duck heads, and pig brains

And we dont say hamburger is made of cow; we say its made of beef.”So it seems that theres not one simple answer to this question. When it comes to eating meat, however, perhaps we should simply just enjoy th
