From meticulously crafted avocado toasts to decadent milkshakes adorned with towering confections, our obsession with food has reached unparalleled heights.

Would these fancy foods such as avocados, Olive Oils, Cheese or ultra-processed foods ever agree with your body, home food or the food available in your country??

We've become slaves to our cravings, mindlessly consuming without regard for nutritional value or moderation. Moreover, social media influencers wield the power to set trends, turning obscure dishes into overnight sensations.?

Technology has also played a pivotal role in shaping today’s food scene.?From cooking apps that guide home chefs to food delivery services that bring gourmet meals to our doorsteps, technology has made ‘eating in’ the new ‘eating out.’?

The consequences are dire. Obesity rates soar, and chronic illnesses proliferate, fueled by diets laden with sugar, salt, and processed foods.?
