Natural Foods and a Critique of Modernity
The choice of natural foods could be interpreted in terms of Anthony
Giddens's theories about people's calculations of risk elements
in modern everyday life. Health issues, fear of diseases, and ultimately
existential question, such as the horror of death, are the underlying
reasons that people began to look at what foods they could trust
in a global society, where international food industry manage food
production and distribution and where experts have commandeer the
knowledge of what is safe and healthy food. In his well-known culinary
triangle Claude Lévi-Strauss emphasized that raw food was
related to nature, while cooked food handle in vessel made by people
had become society. At the beginning of the twenty-first century
the discourse nearby food, particularly so-called natural foods,
engage new and different meanings and symbols. In some groups, particularly
those who support natural foods, nature and rural living are favored
before culture and urban living. Thus Lévi-Strauss's ideas
about the raw and cooked have changed place. Raw food rather than
process and cooked food are considering culture among some kind
of groups.
