While I agree with the thesis in broad terms, I believe something is still missing. This conception of food is too scholastic. It doesn't take into account what the individual brings(to the table..) that is unique.
We each have a purpose (even if we do end up as food for the lizard elites) and this purpose cooks and flavors our food.
Any full theory of food, needs to acknowledge that a mountain view has more calories, when you need to cross to it to destroy the ring of power.
