As we sit before this meal, let us be grateful for the bounty and family here to share what has been supplied for us this day. Amen.....

NON-Christian thank you???? Let's see....
"Over the teeth, through the gums, LOOK OUT STOMACH... Here it comes!!!"
or a variation of this... and it is spoken as if leading a cheerleading squad... "Rub-a-dub-dub! Thanks for the Grub! YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH GOD!"
But you can maybe substitute the name of the person who prepared the meal... like MOM, for instance.
Have a blessed day.

You mean a grace?
Bless this food to our body's use, amen.
PS Jews say grace after the meal. Ever considered conversion? I have to say, it's a tough road. ;)

Thank you my ancestors for bearing me and making sure I got a decent education so that I could buy this food. Thank you farmers for doing the all the dirty work for no money to produce this food.

if you want it to be not-christain, then you *must* leave out the "christ" bit.
using the terms "Jesus" "christ" "messiah" or most likely, "through"(that one might be ok, but saying for example, a modification of yours "bounty through your messenger" would still not cut it. thats still christian. )

Non-Christian:
Thanks for the food Mom and Dad!
Let's eat.
The prayer you wrote is very Christian.
