anthropology

is essential to the field of anthropology: eating is a biological necessity, and is a universal part of humanity. this means that since everyone eats, culture is the primary thing that differentiates what we eat. 

since cultures can be defined by their cuisines, it becomes clear upon comparison that we are far more alike as humans than we realize.
