Well, I agree that food comes first and ethics later. Food is the basic need for the living beings to survive. No living being on this great earth doesn't have any ethics. They will search for food and they survive regardless of the way it obtained the food.

But it is import to note that man had became the supreme living being on this great earth because of his enormous intelligence. But the ethics make his existence for billions of years.

"NO FOOD NO SURVIVAL, BUT NO ETHICS NO LONGER SURVIVAL".

Ethics and food are the two sides of a coin. If you talk about the ethic of a person who is hungry and searching for food his ethics can't help him out. Because our ethics can't fulfill the hungry stomach of a person. Hence food comes first than the ethics. Food is the basic need of a human being.

Friend as per my views, food comes first because ethics come from peace and constant mind and one needs proper feeding to think about it which a hungry man don't has. So he is not able to judge what is ethical or not. Hence good food is paramount to think better.

Food and ethics are inter-related things. If a person is not getting enough food ethics are not going to help him out. But every time for getting food we should not forget the ethical values. There should be limit. Earn for your basic needs and not for comforts.

Thank you.

I want to say that Food comes first as compared to ethic because food is the survival human being if they do not eat food they will not survive, if they do not survive then ethic has no meaning.

For ex :- A beggar who have not enough money to eat food, he only pray the god to give me food to survive my life.

Ethic :- Ethic is for rich people who have some rule and regulation in his life. They enough food to survive his life.

IF THERE IS FOOD THEN ETHIC COMES, AND THERE IS NO FOOD THEN THERE IS NO ETHIC.

SO, FOOD COMES FIRST, AS ETHIC LATER.

As, I believe food comes first why I m giving reasons to support my statement if we consider Maslow need hierarchy theory of motivation then we can see that in first stage i.e, physiological need which comprises of food, cloth, shelter because an empty stomach cannot consider for ethics so I believe food comes first ethics later.

According to me ethics comes first.

If every one follows ethical mean there will be no problems in the system.

Unethical means is root cause of every problem.

Even the dog comes near us when they are hungry they never bite and snatch our food.

If from top level to bottom level ethics followed first there will be no corruption, inflation, unemployment.

Hi, friends, as we all know that " food & ethics " are just like two eyes of the face. Both food and ethics are important for human to survive in life or in society. Food is the basic need for a human. When we follow the ethics then we definitely get food. Without food you can't live so I agree that food comes first, ethics later.

In daily life, we are working just for our basic needs like food, shelter & cloths. After basic need, we think about the ethics. Then we follow the ethics.

And, I totally agree with you @Harpreet. Our today life is very practical and we need the energy to survive in life. And whole energy is getting from the food, not from ethics. So food comes first then Ethics.

Hello friends. This is the case of situation. Consider a scenarios of yourself, you are coming from a hectic job and start eating a burger without Washing your hands. So in this scenario you are tired and hungry too. Everyone went through this in life once. So here food comes first. Ethics can be followed only when you are not empty stomach. As a human being ethics is always in our mind but if anyone is dying because of not getting food surely he or she would not look or even think about ethics. This is my perspective.

Noway. It is clear that food is everything in our day to day life. Also I support "ethics". It has some role in a human being's life. But not so much important as food.

If there is food then there is life. If there is life than there is ethics.

So we can conclude that.

"FOOD MAKES ETHICS. ETHICS ONLY SUPPORT IT".
