Food habits of different places are different. Even food habits of different countries are different. It mainly depends on two factors. One is climate of that area and other is the crops which are grown more in that area. In our country different states have different food habits. People of Punjab eat mainly chapattis and sorsoon ki saag. Tamil Nadu prefers idli dhosa where Bengal prefers rice and fish. Again the people of costal area prefer sea fish more due to sufficient availability.

There are some special dishes which are famous only for those places. Kolkata’s Rosogulla and misti dahi are famous and sonpapdi of Nagpur is famous. Some dishes are famous according to some famous occasions. Modak is prepared for Ganesh chaturthi and laddoo is made for marriage ceremony.

Now it has no barrier. People are interested to taste different types of foods of different places as all foods are available in all places. Bengalis are eating idli, dhosa and south Indians are eating rice also.

Now from where we can get foods? Mainly foods come from plant and animals. Different types of vegetables come from plants and milk products and egg, fish and meat come from animals. Some vegetables are cooked to eat and some vegetables are eaten raw. Fruits also play an important role to all. In desert area people depend on various grains and dry foods and also they use various pickles.

Spices play an important role in our daily diet throughout India. Mainly most spices are made after drying and pasting. Some spices like ginger, garlic are used raw and fresh.

Now one important matter which should be kept in our mind always. We should not waste our food. In many occasions it has been seen that many children even adults also are wasting food. We should keep in mind that many people do not get foods. Wastage of foods means keeping few people hungry. Again food is bought by money so in other word wastage of food means wastage of money. From childhood this moral words should be taught to all. Some foods can be preserved and some foods can be distributed to poor also.
