LESSON 04
Food and drink are absolutely necessary things. Those who do not eat for pleasure must do so from necessity; because, as in order to keep a machine in good condition, and in working order, we must oil it regulary, so, to keep the body in good condition and fit for work, we must eat and drink at more or less regular intervals.
Some people need more food than others; some are satisfied with one full meat, and one or two light repasts, while need two good meals, besides the ligter repasts.
The meals consist of food and drink. Let us see what they consist of: the morning repast of most people consists of coffe, with or without milk, and bread and butter or bread and cheese; people who keep to a diet take only tea or matte, without milk, and dry toast, or a few biscuits.
The lunch or midday meal, consists: of beans, rice, fish or a hash, beefsteak and potatores or vegetables, fruit or aweets, and coffee.
During the afternoon, some people take tea, with toast or cakes, others prefer coffee or a glass of milk.
The evening meal consists of soup, an entree, roast meat or a chicken, vegetables, rice, fruit, sweets, and coffee.
But, if it is necessary, in order to sustain life, to eat and drink we must remember to eat and drink with moderation; otherwise, the food and drink will do us more harm than good; as eating and suffering, and and makes life a misery
We must remember "to eat to live" and not "live to eat".
