  1. God.


  2. Lol!! I like georgestraitfan's answer.

  3. No. Cave people just got hungry and used their resources.

  4. Yes, his name was John Foodimeyer, but we shortened it to just Food.

  5. maybe your thinking of the word food and if thats the case, then early people first used grunts and hand motions, then an alphabet, then i guess someone derived "food" from some greek word

  6. When the primitive people were still monkeys - they got hungry.  What was not poison - was food. Cooked food came into being the same way. If the raw state was no good (bugs, spoilage, etc.) then the item was put over a fire and cooked. A hot meal was born. Recipes are trial and error. Does it taste good, last a long time, not poisonous, etc.?

  7. Well somewhere down the line someone realized adding heat to food cooks it.

    That was a good idea.

    Cavemen would hunt and gather.....meaning they looked for stuff that was edible and killed animals to eat their meat.

    So the first primitive ancestors of humans.....

    They probably called it "MOG" or something.

  8. Living things consume energy in their activities and thus require fuel.  Whenever and however life began, it needed fuel to exist, so it found something to eat.  That's food.

  9. lol. food was not invented. the ways in which we combine spices and other food products was i guess "invented".

  10. no. Ancient people probably just picked something up and shoved in their pie hole and and found out it was good and they told all their ancient little friends and so on and so on......

  11. The color of your hair on your avatar fits you well.

  12. um, its a term that people used to define things that they eat. whats "food" and what isnt is an opinion

  13. NO

    the pre man (what ever you call them) just watched other animals and basically acted in/on instinct..

    Invention ??

    NO cooking again was a continuing discovery.

    food left too close to the fire BBQ other stuff set aside and fermented

  14. well, as mankind developed, people learned what plants and animals were edible and tasty.  once they mastered this, food was created and other people came along, changing how they made their food and so on and so on

  15. not really; food has been around since the beginning of time.

    depending who it was; dinos; people; we all have our types

    of food. new food can be invented; but nobody actually went

    i want french fries today; let me create a potato.

  16. well a group of people just was standing around getting hungry. they just started to just eat everything that they could get their hands on. What ever made them kill or make them sick they just did not eat that again. So food was at our finger tips we just had to be smart enough to eat it or hungry enough.

  17. GOD or NATURE however you wish to call it. PUT FOOD HERE FOR US TO EAT. Food was simply DISCOVERED it was not nor did it need to be INVENTED. However, it was MANS inginutity that enabled us to CREATE the different types of DISHES we have today and to BLEND different tastes and COOK different MEATS etc etc. That was years and years of TRIAL and ERA. Like realizing that COCOA and SUGAR would taste GREAT .......because COCOA without SUGAR takes AWEFULL!!!!!!!!!!! like medicine!! Electricity was DISCOVERED it was HERE and man DISCOVERED it remember BEN FRANKLYN............so NATURE provides or GOD provides and MAN discovers. OK silly goose!

  18. God did, although Adam and Eve were meant to be vegetarians. Then they ate fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, and they were cast out of the garden. Then they had to till the ground to make their food grow, and they also slaughtered animals for food and clothes. It was all part of the "curse."

  19. of course not!!! god created the ingredients to make different foods and he also created fruits and veggies!

  20. yes food was invented by quite a few people over the years.

    the Taco was invented by Mr. Bell in 1946

    Fried chicken by Harland Sanders AKA KFC in 1959

    the hamburger by Ray Crock  the inventor of the Mc Donalds hamburger. ( yes I know the Mc Donald brothers came up with it first)

    the hot dog is from germany made in 1889

    the cherry pie was from George Washington (he did cut the tree down)

    the fig Newton was invented by Sir Isiac Newton in 1756

    and tv dinners were invented by a Mrs , Carla Swanson in 1958

    then came Mr. Wendys with his square burger ( was that an invention?)

    but God gave us marijuiana to use as a food of the gods.

  21. Fish ( although I don't know who invented it) is a good food for the brain, you should try some urgently.

  22. (29) Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. (30) And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground—everything that has the breath of life in it—I give every green plant for food."

  23. No, well yes, by God or mother nature or both.

    people invent types of food like recipes.

  24. no cows just look appitizing! no one "invented" food, they probably came up with a theroy that evolved into what we have now.

  25. If by food you also mean cooking food, the cavemen invented fire!

  26. It was God's way of providing nourishment to humans.

  27. no, everyone naturally gets hungry, and whether its considered food or not if someones hungry enough they'll eat it, so you cant really say food is an invention

  28. The Earth invented it -

    or some would say God invented it-

  29. Languages evolved over time. The words vary by language, and certain concepts do not translate to other languages. But food is such a basic human necessity that most likely all languages have a word for it.

  30. God created food. He told Adam and Eve they could eat of any fruit in the graden except for one...

  31. No.  But different people invented how to put diffrent foods in tasty combinations.
