Importance of Traditional foods
What are Traditional Foods?
Traditional foods are foods that were consumed throughout history before the modernization and industrialization of the food supply. These foods are not only free from additives, chemicals and many of the things we find in food today, but they were exceptionally nourishing.
Traditional staple food and other food groups such as nuts, seeds, wild fruits and vegetables are significantly used in diet and area specific.
Traditional food system plays a significant role in maintaining the well-being and health of Indigenous People. ... Changing food pattern can damage the good health of the society. Though the specifics of traditional food varied by culture, many cultures included some variation of the following:
• Healthy proteins like free range meats, fish or eggs
• Beneficial fats from healthy sources including coconut based fats, handmade butter and olive oil
• Organ meats
• Vegetables, fruits and nuts, especially leafy greens
• Sometimes tubers and root vegetables
Sadly, with the advances in technology and food preparation, these time-honored traditional foods have been largely lost in our society.
Our traditional Food is our Cultural Heritage and our pride.
