Foods And Diets
From the dawn of civilization, humans have been omnivores.
A feature article by karkiked, Mar 24, 2008
 Humans have evolved to depend on a continuous supply of energy (calories) and nutrients from edible plants and animals. From the dawn of civilization, humans have been omnivores. Early humans hunted or gathered whatever foods were available in the immediate environment, as determined by geography, climate, and season. The precise number of foods eaten by humans is uncertain; scientists estimate that at least twenty thousand plants have edible parts. To these must be added fungi and algae, as well as foods derived from mammals, fish, seafood, birds, eggs, milk, and exotic animals. Among food plants, about 150 have been domesticated and are cultivated on a large scale, but only about twenty constitute principal energy sources, and just three—wheat, corn, and rice—dominate world markets. What people choose to eat depends largely on culture and economics. Cultural factors explain why Asians eat rice or noodles, whereas Mediterraneans consider no meal complete without bread. There are also religious prohibitions, such as those against consuming beef, pork, or alcoholic beverages. People can choose freely from available foods only if they can afford them; without an adequate income, food choices are limited. read: Foods And Diets
