Value of food

Food- what is its value to you?

I'm currently in army camp for my interview as military doctor. (Ommit the details bout this kay.. Updates later.. :p) 

Here, we have a lot of canditates all coming and want to work with the army. Mostly guys, with only 10% girls. 

The main thing i observe so far is that the waste of food after breakfast, lunch, dinner. I know this is not a new or some shocking situation to be talked or discussed about. I can't stand my eyes looking at  the dustin outside the canteen piling up with food! Rice, chicken, fish, beef, vege... 

You guys and girls are graduates, considered highly educated. But why is your mentality like a uneducated person? Or even worse, i think a low or uneducated person values food more than you do. So where is your status? 

This also applies to those outside who throw away food without feeling any guilt. 

I can't and won't be able to understand that act. 

There's a lot of people out there in the world who suffer from hunger every second. But you, you,the one who throw away food just with a swipe of your hand, where is your conscience? Excuse? 

None of it can justify your selfish act. 

Chinese family usually have a teaching from the eldely about food. "Finish every single grain of rice on your plate, waste none. Think how hard it is to grow that and for it to come to your table."

Hence, i urge everyone to act about this, and encourage someone around you to do so. 

Value food. Remember the value of food and value it.
