FOOD: FUEL OR PLEASURE?

From my point of view, food is a mixture of both.On the one hand, food is energy for me. For example, I can’t work or study, if I haven’t a good meal before. In my opinion, not only food is fuel, do some sport is fuel too.On the other hand, food should be a pleasure. There are people who have many problems with food. They are always trying all kind of diets which they watch on TV or read in a magazine. I think, this is a serious topic and they should go to the doctor.As far as I’m concerned, food is a pleasure too. I always relate meals with something to celebrate like birthdays or anniversaries.To sum up, I think, in Spain we are fortunate because we have a rich Mediterranean diet. We only have to take care to quantities which we eat and do some sport.
