Ladies and Gentlemen,
Whoever worked in a kitchen already knows that cooking goes like follows:
a) preparing and cooking or baking the food: 2 hours
b) eating: 15 minutes (a very short pleasure)
c) washing-up: 30 minutes...
If you also consider the food that you buy ready in the supermarket, street-food and restaurants you can roughly say that half of our life revolves around eating... It may somewhat sooth you that cats spend 70% of their lives with sleeping - and they are right...
A piece of food must look good... A piece of food must smell good... And a piece of food must taste good... Only if your meal fulfils all of these conditions you can swallow it... (This is for sure a way to avoid poisoning...) So why do we make such a big fuss from eating?
My answer is that when you eat or drink you know that your food comes from God... All the hanky-panky about eating is necessary because human food comes from God... That is why there is so much energy in it for example... I also think that becoming human starts with your food and discovering God behind it...
Jesus Christ might think the same...
What is the sense of a wild swine? Nearly only to be eaten...
Best wishes, Joseph de la Mikula and Team
