We must focus on those things which will bring us together, not further divide. Food in all of its forms offers opportunity. The farmers, breeders, and producers make up a large segment of our population. In some cases it can be an entire family effort, in others a secure job working for one of the food giants. It can encompass the resources of a retail chain operation to a pick-up loaded with pumpkins.
Food provides jobs at the base level for increasing numbers of young and old alike.
Food provides a means to an end for all of those people who are really something else while they wait tables. For the ambitious and artistic, food provides the necessary outlet for expression. Students of food can learn to cook and create their own security and style. Volunteers can aid in the collection and dispersal of food. Everyone loves someone who cooks.
