Food is art! Everything to do with food is actually an art form. You'd have heard the saying "cooking is a form of art", and yet it is, but that is only one part of it. The entire concept of food, from creating the recipe to the final eating of the dish is a form of art, and a very precise form of art if you pay real attention.
Food in itself is anything edible. But what makes food an experience and a joy, is what goes into the food. So the best ingredients and spices are usually selected by chefs to create their masterpieces. If even one ingredient is even a little out of place the flavour of the dish will change completely.
So important are ingredients that in a display of the most dishes at the Administration Committee of Baibuting Community in Wuhan City, China, 581 dishes, out of the 8727 entries, were disqualified because they had all used the same main ingredient. Incidentally, China holds the world record for that display.
