How human nature and eating behavior are related

“You are what you eat,” says modern nutritionists and doctors. Assuming that the quality of food depends on the quality of the human body and its health.

Etiquette connoisseurs and psychologists say a little differently: “Look how a person eats, and you will find out what he is.” For a person, eating is not only a physiological way to satisfy hunger, but also an emotional process that is accompanied by pleasure.
