We eat because we are living organisms who need energy to fuel our body processess. True, we may survive for a few days..maybe even weeks without food, but pretty soon, our own body will use up our own cells for fuel. If you're on a diet, you may think this is a good idea, but i tell you it is not! the consequences are beyond imagining.
I guess we eat because the higher being who created us decided trhat it's the best way for us to realize that we need to coexist with other creatures.
Always remember: WE EAT TO LIVE, NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND.

We eat to live and NOT live to eat.
I always ask that question before because I have a different view on food. I don't want to get fat and some of my relatives think I am anorexic. I am still battling with this one but I don't believe I am. It is just knowing what are the proper foods to eat in our lives- to live and be stable in our good health.

To keep blood sugar level up. I have diabetes and have to eat, sometimes when I do not feel hungry. Have just had a hypo in library and ate something sweet and was told by a perfect stranger - "You will get fat!" What business is it of his? I was simply addressing an urgent need! I am not fat.

Because
~We have an excretory system
~We need energy which we get from food
~After energy is used, they will be wasted from the body.
~The "fuel" is not reusable like paper
~Some nutrients can't be stored in our body
~Don't you wanna stay alive and eat many other foods you've never tried before?

Because if we didn't we'd die! We get necessary nutrition and energy from the food we eat. Besides, eating is good and tasty and fun.

because our body needs energy from food in order to function correctly without food our body would stop working. its kinda like gasoline and a car.
