In this process of self discovery, the youth tend to be rash and ignorant and in a sense consider themselves ‘immortal gods’. This can be illustrated by the carefree attitude they adopt (Hunt et al., 2009).

Food as a matter of choice is ruling the planet. We eat what we like and that which appeals to the eyes, tongue or brain. We survive because we have good food, water, and air.

Back in the years during and after the Cold War from 1945, almost every country had a key wartime strategy that had a heavy focus on limiting the basic domestic food consumption. Different governments therefore employed control mechanisms and enforced the reduction of citizen’s consumption through the food rationing implementation.

Citizens were therefore allowed only so much of some of the scarce foods that were available and ...
