=='''What are the Different Types of Food?==''' 
There are different kinds of food. Firstly, tamasic food that is food which is stale or rotten with the virtue gone out of it. Secondly, rajasic food that is the food which is too acrid, pungent etc., heats the blood and spoils the health. Thirdly, sattwic food that is the food which is pleasing, healthy etc. Different kinds of food nourish the action of the different gunas and so indirectly are helpful or harmful apart from their physical action. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwsa/31/food#p60</ref>
'''Food as a Small Concern'''
o To be always thinking about food and troubling the mind is quite the wrong way of getting rid of the food-desire. Put the food element in the right place in the life, in a small corner, and don't concentrate on it but on other things. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwsa/31/food#p11</ref>
'''Food as an Offering'''
In conclusion, if one wants to see the truth of the problem, it is this: only an enlightened body, balanced and free from all vital desire and mental preconception, is capable of knowing what it needs in regard to quantity and kind of food. It is extremely exceptional to find such a body, thus, one must act for the best with non-attachment and equanimity and not attach too much importance to it. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/16/12-august-1964#p6</ref>
