According to me, this topic is actually trying to point towards a very burning news now-a-days and i.e. "ban on beef". Because it's a food for some communities in India whereas it's related to ethics for the others. Lets be specific about the two biggest communities of our country where the Muslims supports beef consumption but the Hindus are against it because of their moral values or ethics. But let's also not forget that our constitution supports freedom to eat and live freely as we are breathing in a democratic country.

Warm greetings to everyone.

I will start with a great statement that a food at a time can help one to quench his/her hunger for that moment but the values and morals i.e. ethics or knowledge can help one to develop a positive attitude and perspective to arrange his foods even in his adverse situations. Having proper ethical values and knowledge, one can easily judge whether his/her attempt for getting food is correct or not because in many times out of haste one may face troubles after getting food in an unethical manner.

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.

In my opinion food comes first and ethics later because in today's life there are three basic amenities required for survival of any person and these are food, cloth and shelter. Out of these three food is most important one. When it comes for food then no one see any ethics there because ethics is related to individual behaviour. If any have everything in his life(money) then they follow their ethics then they thinks about their behaviour and change the way of living and do everything which comes in their etics.

In my opinion food comes and will comes first than ethics. When you don't have the source of survival that is food you would not go for maintaining or system your own status for better, good or kind appearance.

For example in the starting of civilization man's character were surviving for food type but as the civilization developed then the so called religion, government, system comes into the picture.

Thus food comes first and ethics later, but nowadays it also depends upon the individuals as all of you said.

Ethics are the moral values which are being taught since childhood. Ethics does play important role but in real life it is hardly followed by some individual. Ethics are calculated within ourselves then also we do wrong thing like we are aware of the traffic rules but then also some breaks, we are aware that robbery is wrong deed but then also we do some by habit and some by need. In this world first come is always served first. But a person who do not possess to have food two times what he will do with ethics.

Everyone likes a person with ethics. Such idol people are praised but not followed. In today's world people can only enjoy the gandhidiri in "Lage raho munna bhai", but no one encultates the principles in themselves. Well this is human nature. The god, which has created human with the power to think, to difffer between good and bad, has also created 3 basic needs and food is one of them. When there is race for every thing, anyone would like to win only, and that is not possible by ethics only in today's world.

Hello friends,

I agree the statement that the food comes first and the ethics later as we seen in real world so many of peoples are from poor background and some of them are lack food and other facilities but they are having utmost IQ brain power, hence the government should take the responsibility of these people and should give basic needs, they are mainly from the backward categories so government has to provide basic needs to such people and let them to give contribution to the improvement of our nation.

No doubt. It is been accepted by our society that basic necessities of our life are food, clothing and shelter. Ethics is equally important to food. But nowadays, the importance of ethics is fading, you get to see so many crimes in our society. Murders, kidnapping, robbery. Most of the time the reason of such crime is money. In such situations its hard to say that ethics comes first then food. We say Man is a social animal. We eat to live not live to eat. We earn and we eat, but animals the case is different.

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".
