Food is any substance consumed to provide nutritional support for the body. It is usually of plant or animal origin, and contains essential nutrients, such as carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins, or minerals. The substance is ingested by an organism and assimilated by the organism's cells to produce energy, maintain life, or stimulate growth.
Historically, people secured food through two methods: hunting and gathering, and agriculture. Today, most of the food energyrequired by the ever increasing population of the World is supplied by the food industry.
Food safety and food security are monitored by agencies like the International Association for Food Protection, World Resources Institute, World Food Programme, Food and Agriculture Organization, and International Food Information Council. They address issues such as sustainability, biological diversity, climate change, nutritional economics, population growth, water supply, and access to food.
The right to food is a human right derived from the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR), recognizing the "right to an adequate standard of living, including adequate food," as well as the "fundamental right to be free from hunger."
I loves to eat so much.Especially bread.Let me tell you about history of bread.Bread is one of the oldest prepared foods. Evidence from 30,000 years ago in Europe revealed starch residue on rocks used for pounding plants. It is possible that during this time, starch extract from the roots of plants, such as cattails and ferns, was spread on a flat rock, placed over a fire and cooked into a primitive form of flatbread. Around 10,000 BC, with the dawn of the Neolithic age and the spread of agriculture, grains became the mainstay of making bread. Yeast spores are ubiquitous, including the surface of cereal grains, so any dough left to rest will become naturally leavened.
There were multiple sources of leavening available for early bread. Airborne yeasts could be harnessed by leaving uncooked dough exposed to air for some time before cooking. Pliny the Elder reported that the Gauls and Iberians used the foam skimmed from beer to produce "a lighter kind of bread than other peoples." Parts of the ancient world that drank wine instead of beer used a paste composed of grape juice and flour that was allowed to begin fermenting, or wheat bran steeped in wine, as a source for yeast. The most common source of leavening was to retain a piece of dough from the previous day to use as a form of sourdough starter.
In 1961 the Chorleywood bread process was developed, which used the intense mechanical working of dough to dramatically reduce the fermentation period and the time taken to produce a loaf. The process, whose high-energy mixing allows for the use of lower protein grain, is now widely used around the world in large factories. As a result, bread can be produced very quickly and at low costs to the manufacturer and the consumer. However there has been some criticism of the effect on nutritional value.
Recently, domestic bread machines that automate the process of making bread have become popular.

Besides the bread and croissants, sandwiches and quiches are also quite yummy here....
It’s always a challenge to find authentic French breads in Malaysia. They’re either adapted to our palate which gives them a slight sweetness or the texture is off due to the humidity. Tommy Le Baker has changed this though with his wonderful offerings. The breads here are as true to the French style breads as can be possibly done here. The croissants are buttery and flaky while the baguettes are crusty and have a good sound when lightly knocked on. Another great find in this little spot are the lovely loaves of sourdough bread. Tommy believes in a long fermentation process and he feeds his starter atta flour, the kind used to make capati. Apart from breads, this café offers sandwiches, pastries, and fruit tarts. This is a worthy spot to drop in and grab a bite to eat as you listen to a bit of French radio and have a chat with the exuberant Tommy.

The sun dried tomato bread is so good....
The sun dried tomato bread here is to die for! This crusty loaf is so good on it’s own and even better when broken off and dipped in balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Aside from this bread in particular you can find an entire range of grain breads, sourdough breads, and other baked goodies. Hiestand is a Swiss Gourmet bakery that specializes in European goodies that are made with high quality natural raw ingredients. Another great find here are the bagels, which are chewy, and doughy, especially lovely slathered with cream cheese. Sit in the café and order one of their sandwiches or breakfast specials and enjoy it all with a cup of coffee. The smell of freshly baked bread will keep you on an all time high. If you'd like to know more about these yummy baked goods check out our review on Hiestand.

"Savour the aromas"
The Bread Shop, Damansara Heights
Lusting for a sinful chocolate roll? Get your fix at The Bread Shop.
Tucked away in Damansara Heights there’s this cosy little bakery offering delicious baked delights. Everything made here is without preservatives and artificial substances and on Wednesdays and Saturdays they even have organic bread available. In keeping with the health spin they have a special bread known as broom bread that is packed with grains that are meant to sweet your digestive system clean. Fun name for a loaf of bread! If you’re into sweet pastries go for the cinnamon roll or the chocolate croissant. These are seriously good! One thing to note is that this spot is not child friendly. The space is small so manoeuvring with a pram might be a problem and there aren’t any baby chairs. If you have tiny tots we suggest stopping in to pack some goodies and enjoy them in the comfort of your home. This wonderful bakery also offers yummy hot chocolate that compliments their tasty croissants and pastries perfectly. A definite must-try for chocoholics.

Simple great breads can be found at this spot
If all you’re after is great bread and you’re not looking for a café to enjoy it in, this is the spot to visit. This is the type of bakery where you buy your weekly supply of bread as the quality is high and prices are low. When you step in all you’ll find are breads stacked on shelves, a payment counter, and behind the counter, machines that are responsible for making the bread. Everything here is fresh and you’ll find the staples. If you’re in the mood for a treat go for the pesto ciabatta, which is full of flavour, or the croissants that are buttery and flaky. Yum!

If you want to sneak away for some croissants, make your way here....
This beautiful bungalow houses a popular bakery and restaurant.

Enjoy the historic charm of the building as you take in the ambience while enjoying your meal. This is the perfect inner city getaway; because once you’re here you’ll feel your stresses melt away. At Levain you’ll be spoilt for choice as they have over 60 types of baked goods. You won’t know where to start! We personally like the butter roll that is rich and full of fatty goodness, as well as the orange peel rye bread that has a sensuous aroma. Another great find is the cereal baguette, which is both crusty and nutty, perfect for making sandwiches with.

Another one worth mentioning is The Bakery at Ukay Heights. Their croissants and wholegrain breads are pretty good. If you prefer not to venture down to KL, they also have another branch in Sri Hartamas.
