Thou shouldst eat to live; not live to eat. —Socrates
Never eat more than you can lift. —Miss Piggy

Mention food in a casual conversation and there will be as many comments as people present. Food does take up a great part of our day—buying it, preparing it and consuming it. It also takes up part of a well-child visit—when to start an infant on solids, what is a healthy diet and how to maintain a healthy body shape.
