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.

For me ethics comes first because there is no use of surviving. We need to live our life. We can take example of freedom fighters like Bhagat Singh who have not taken food for several days in prison because he wanted free India.
There are several examples where human being have given there life for ethics. There is no use of merely surviving. We should live our life. If everyone is ethical there is no problem in the system.

For me, food does not come first but ethics. If we do not want to sound ethical, breathe ethical, live ethical, then what is the use of education? For food aka money, we can steal, we can beg, then why to waste both energy and time in learning the a basics of life. Ethics is the gap between what we call a civilized person and a non civilized person.

Hi friends!
This is Hema. I agree to some extent that food comes first, ethics next. Food is the basic need for all. And we people earning by some means just to fill our bellies. How much we strive hard, its only to satisfy our hunger.
We should not earn by illegal methods. Hunger drives us to commit to the worst situations. But we should mostly see that in this search process we should not commit ourselves to immoral acts.

Yes. I too think that food comes first, ethics later. As said even by our elders "HEALTH IS WEALTH". If we are not well (physically or mentally) , how can we be able to interact with others, do and manage our work effectively or participate actively in any event? So, in my view, it is the food that must be given preference over the ethics.

I agree with this. If your tummy is full you look civilized, educated and well personality. Your mind is satisfied and if you are creative and balanced, your mind provoke you to do well things. Hence, ethics is shown in your work. If your tummy is empty, how can you satisfy your mind. Hence, you shows your anger for that situation and to overcome that situation you will do all works which are unethical.

Ethics plays an important role to get recognized in the society. But food comes first. Food is the basic (psychological) need of human being. If he is starving then he will become weak or unhealthy and an unhealthy person dies daily.
Once his basic needs (food, shelter, clothing) are fulfilled then he will get motivated to fulfill his higher level needs (such as ethics etc).

The man is a social animal. The man born in the earth. He has fulfill has all needs himself his first needs food. He has to arrange his food. He work and search his food. The quoted line"food comes first ethics latter".

Hi friends,
I think this is absolutely correct statement. If person is hungry, his eyes and mind always try to find out food to fill his stomach. He will keep his ethics in side until he get food. But if he is not starving he will try to upgrade his ethic value in society. He will make some creative thinking, innovation in his work which could increases his ethic value.

FOOD=ETHICS.
To revive food need food, To earn food you need ethics, To get ethics you have to survive.
In this way in different situation you have to give preference to food & ethics because both of are depends on each other.
