8 high school essay materials on cherishing food

Grain Composition 1

"It's noon on the day of hoeing, and the sweat is dripping from the soil. Who knows that every particle of the meal is hard work." This poem tells us that every grain of rice contains the sweat of the farmer uncle, and tells us to save food and not be picky about food. Our food is not easy to come by. It is all obtained by the farmer uncles who have worked hard in the cold and heat, so we must save food.

Food is precious and should be cherished. Anyone can say this. But in real life, there are only a few people who can truly understand the importance of food. None of our students have ever experienced real hunger, so for them there is no concept of saving. Invisibly, some waste was caused. Only through regular education in schools, some stories, and some investigations can students realize the importance of caring for food. Learn to read and memorize "It's noon on the day of hoeing, and the sweat drops from the soil..." and use it in action. Start with the most common things in life, don't throw away leftovers, don't be picky about food and clothing, cherish the fruits of other people's labor, and gradually develop a good habit of diligence and thrift. Cherishing food is a traditional virtue of our Chinese nation. The earth we live on does not have much arable land for food production, and it is being continuously eroded by urbanization and industrial development. The world as a whole is not rich in food. Every year, hundreds of millions of people suffer from hunger due to poverty, natural disasters or war. It can be said that cherishing food means cherishing life, cherishing nature, and cherishing our home planet.

Eating other people’s food will make you sweat, eating your own food will make you cry, so only by eating your own food can you appreciate the hard work of the farmer uncle! Classmates, pearls are treasure and rice is king. Saving food is like saving gold. Don’t worry if you have food! Therefore, we must cherish food, save food, and not waste food.

It is noon on the day of hoeing, and the sweat is dripping from the soil.

Who knows that every grain of food on the plate is hard work.

This is a poem that every one of our classmates will memorize when they are learning to speak. Yes, the farmer uncles sow, water, fertilize, weed and remove insects, braving the scorching sun, wind and rain, and frost and dew. After more than half a year of hard work, they can harvest and get those plump grains of food.

Although growing food is so hard, food wastage is still common.

I eat in the school cafeteria and see many students wasting food every day. Some students don't like a certain dish, so they leave that dish motionless on the table; some students have too much rice and can't finish it, so they throw it away as a matter of course. Such waste occurs every day.

I didn’t know how to cherish food before. Once, after dinner at home, I was about to leave the rice bowl and leave the table, but I found my grandma picking up the remaining vegetables in the bowl and eating them. At that time, I thought that my grandma was really petty. She just threw away such a small amount of vegetables. Why did she eat so cleanly? Until one day I saw the news: some children in the mountainous areas of Guizhou simply don’t have enough to eat. Thinking of my usual lack of care for food, my grandma's frugality that day, and my disdain for grandma's saving of food, I immediately felt ashamed. We have enough food and clothing, but the children in impoverished mountainous areas don't even have enough to eat. It's really shameful that we waste such money.

Later, the concept of cherishing food took root deeply in my heart. When eating, serve as much as you eat, and then serve again after you have finished eating. For us, this is just a little effort, and cherishing food is precisely in this small gesture.

Let us regard thrift as a habit and a virtue. Let us take action, starting from me, starting bit by bit, and carry forward the virtues of cherishing food and saving food for a long time.

"It is noon on the day of hoeing, and the sweat is dripping from the soil. Who knows that every grain of lunch is a blessing." Yes, the farmer uncle works in the fields all year round. We worked hard, sweated a lot, and were tired before we could produce the food we cannot live without.

How lucky they are, how can we not cherish food?

When you walk into the canteen, the first thing you see is the swill bucket full of leftovers and leftover rice. Even uneaten buns are thrown into the swill bucket. If the farmer uncle saw it, how distressed and sad they would be! What is the reason for their misfortune?

There is a story like this. A long time ago, the daughter-in-law of a rich man’s family saw that the family had a lot of wealth, gold, silver and jewelry, and she couldn’t use them up. However, she cooked a lot of food every day and ate it. When he was not finished, he poured it into the swill tank. Soon after, he was reported to the Jade Emperor by the Kitchen God. The Jade Emperor was surprised when he heard this, and ordered the heavenly soldiers and generals to go down to earth to conduct on-the-spot investigation at the rich man's house the next day. If the situation was true, he would be severely punished. When the kindhearted Guanyin Bodhisattva heard the news, he wanted to give the family a chance to change, so he entrusted a dream to the rich man's daughter-in-law, asking her to pick up the food that had been poured into the swill tank and eat it, otherwise she and her family would be destroyed. disaster. My daughter-in-law slept in the middle of the night and suddenly woke up. When she woke up, she clearly remembered what Guanyin Bodhisattva said. Thinking of her extravagant behavior in daily life, she immediately got up and scooped out every grain of rice from the swill tank. She washed the food with clean water and fried it with oil for her family to eat. The next day, the sunny weather suddenly turned stormy. The heavenly soldiers and generals came to her kitchen and fished out the swill three times, but they didn't find a grain of rice, so they had to return to heaven to report to the Jade Emperor. With this lesson learned, the family has been diligent and thrifty since then, not daring to waste another grain of rice.

I suggest everyone: Serve as much as you can eat, and don’t throw away the food. When ordering food in a restaurant, you should order in moderation, and you should not be ostentatious or order randomly... Also, don't leave out leftovers at school and start having leftovers when you get home.

I hope that from now on, each of us will cherish food, save food, feel the hardship of labor and food production, and cultivate the virtues of hard work, diligence and thrift.

Food Essay 4

Saving food is a traditional virtue of the Chinese nation. It can be seen how important food is to us humans. As the saying goes, "Food is the first necessity for man." If one day all What a disaster it would be if people had no food!

Although food is very important, people have repeatedly ignored it. "It's noon on the day of hoeing, and the sweat is dripping on the soil. Who knows that every grain of food on the plate is hard work." You may be familiar with Grandpa Li Shen's "Compassion for the Farmers", but in real life, how many people use it Keep it in mind! How many people will take action!

Come to our cafeteria and take a look. When eating, some students are very picky about food. Some students were in a hurry to play and spilled the rice soup on the ground in a panic while walking; some students were making trouble while eating, throwing rice and steamed buns to each other, and simply treating the food as a toy on the dining table... These are all a waste of food! Maybe you think that wasting a little bit of food is not worth mentioning at all, but if everyone wastes a little bit, what a huge loss it will be! I found that 85% of students in the restaurant had no money at all. It has become a common behavior for students to pour food into the swill bucket without hesitation, which is really a pity! Although there are many slogans and warning signs hanging in the most eye-catching places in the cafeteria, the teacher has worked tirelessly to teach us over and over again , but food cannot escape the fate of being wasted. However, when we throw away a pot of vegetables and half a bowl of rice, do we think that there are still many parents who work hard to provide a meal for the whole family?

Students, saving is the greatest. contribute. Even if we don't think about ourselves, we must think about some families living in poverty. Let us remember the saying "save food" and develop a good habit of saving from an early age.

Join hands and work together to make "diligence and frugality" the most beautiful scenery on our campus. Let us inherit the fine traditions of the Chinese nation and never waste a grain of food or throw away a bowl of food. Let us Stay away from the bad habit of waste and let the word waste disappear from life!

Today, I saw a piece of news on my computer: The African country Niger is facing a food crisis During the crisis, more than half of the country's villages lacked food. Local residents were starved, malnourished, and all skinny. I couldn't help but think of something my mother told me: Our country has a population of 1.3 billion. If each person saves 1 grain of rice per day, the country can save 12 million kilograms of rice every year, which is enough to feed 35,000 people. "35,000 people", what an astonishing number this is! Then, I remembered that when I had lunch at school, I always "served more and ate less". I really shouldn't have!

Do you know if other citizens save food? Let's go to "Chao Wang Ji" to have a look!

When I came to Chaowangji, I saw that the waiters here were very busy: cleaning the tables, serving noodles, and serving wontons. Look, there are still a few tables that haven’t been wiped! I walked up and took a look, wow! It was completely different from what I expected: not even a single noodle was left in each bowl! How have you become so frugal? I sat down on the stool with doubt. Suddenly, I found a small piece of paper on every table. When I looked at it, there were six words written on it, "No leftovers, no leftovers." Huh? Isn’t this a new slogan launched this year? There are also "Operation CDs" posted on the walls, all related to saving food! I finally understand why everyone is so frugal, and I want to learn from them! At this time, a bowl of noodles was brought to me, and I ate it all. Ha, I have also become a "little disc winner"!

People didn’t save food before, but now we all realize the importance of saving food. Our Wuxi has changed and progressed!

Food Essay 6

Nowadays, the phenomenon of food waste in society is very serious and common. Some people like to order a large table of dishes when treating guests to a meal, and are unwilling to take away the food if they can't finish it; some people like to take more food in the cafeteria, and just throw the leftovers into the swill bucket; and some When people eat at home, there is always some rice left in the bowl... Don't you think it's a pity that the "crystallization" of these farmers' hard work has been wasted in vain? Looking back on the past, these behaviors were not seen at all, because the grain output was small in the past, and it was all through their own hard work. Those who got it cherished these hard-won food. Nowadays, food cultivation has basically been mechanized, requiring very little human labor and greatly increasing food production. Many people can no longer appreciate the hard work, so they have developed the bad habit of wasting food.

I heard from my grandparents that when they were young, they relied entirely on manpower to cultivate land, transplant rice seedlings, hoe weeds, fertilize, harvest... and sometimes they would have blood blisters on their hands. Moreover, the grain output itself is not high because it depends on the weather. If there is a drought or insect infestation, not only will the hard work be in vain, but there will also be no harvest. Therefore, I eat sparingly every day and make calculations. I will never eat dry rice if I can drink porridge, and I will never eat more if I can save a mouthful. Generally, they only ate two or two meters a day, which is equivalent to a bowl of rice today. At that time, the whole family had to eat just this little rice for a whole day. Their biggest wish is to have a bowl of rice.

What about us? Now that science and technology have developed, various new scientific planting methods and the widespread application of machinery have greatly eased people's hard work and increased food production. But machines also need to be controlled by people. It’s impossible for people to just stay at home and let the machines work by themselves, right? Therefore, the amount of labor is reduced, not eliminated. Every grain of rice we eat still requires someone to "sweat" for it. After all, no food will fall from the sky. Now some people think: There is plenty of food anyway, so it doesn’t matter if we waste it. If these people were allowed to experience growing food for one season, I guarantee they would become enlightened.

In fact, I often don't eat the rice in the bowl at home and waste a lot of food. I will have to reflect on it in the future!

In short, we still need to promote economy and oppose extravagance and waste. Whenever we pick up the bowl and look at the rice in the bowl, we must always remind ourselves: "One porridge and one meal, remember that it is hard-earned"!

I eat delicious meals cooked by my mother every day, but I never thought about the preciousness and importance of food. It wasn't until I saw a photo that shocked me that I deeply realized that food plays an irreplaceable role for a person and a country.

It was a photo that won the Pulitzer Prize for Photography in 1994. In the photo, a Sudanese girl was about to starve to death and fell to her knees. She was so skinny that her weak body could no longer lift her up. Her head was staring straight ahead with a pair of longing and desperate eyes, because there was a relief center not far away. It was only a few steps away, but she felt so far away. At this time, a vulture was not far behind the girl, watching eagerly, waiting to prey on the girl.

I couldn't predict the little girl's final fate, but her eyes deeply shocked me. She seemed to be telling me: "Cherish food and cherish a happy life." Later I looked up the information about Su Dan. Domestically, this country is very poor, with constant armed conflicts and frequent natural disasters. The people are in dire straits, and even the basic problem of food and clothing has not been solved. This makes me feel even more proud of living in such a beautiful and rich country like China!

But my mother told me this reality: my country’s population has exceeded 1.3 billion, and the per capita cultivated land area is 1.2 acres, which is 1/4 of the world’s average; the current cultivated land area is increasing at a rate of more than 300,000 acres per year Reduction; 40% of the country's urban population relies on imported food. Various phenomena such as indiscriminate occupation of cultivated land, dredging of sand, deterioration of land quality, and desertification are encroaching on cultivated land. If this continues, our country's food problem will become a very serious problem.

Look around us, the phenomenon of food waste can be seen everywhere: people only pay attention to sumptuousness at the dinner table, completely ignoring the large amount of leftover food; in the school cafeteria, the trash can is filled with uneaten food Although steamed buns and rice are clearly written on the wall of the restaurant: "Who knows that every grain of Chinese food is hard work," some people turn a blind eye...

On the occasion of the "World Food Day", I appeal to all people: start from the little things in daily life, save and cherish every grain of food; cherishing food is actually loving life!

Frugality has always been a traditional virtue of the Chinese nation and our precious spiritual wealth.

"One porridge and one meal, when you think about the difficult place; half a thread, half a thread, always think about the material resources." The ancients wrote thrift into the family motto; "Save food, don't be extravagant and wasteful", in You can find them everywhere in modern restaurants. Everyone talks about frugality, but many people do not practice this virtue, and some even sneer at it. I didn’t know how to save before.

I was having dinner at home on Saturday, and a relative came to visit and brought me a bunch of snacks. When I looked at the pile of snacks, my eyes could not help but shine, and I swallowed hard. The chopsticks holding the white rice in my hand stopped in mid-air, motionless. "Yueyue, eat." Dad called me. I came back to my senses slightly and glanced at the white rice in the bowl and my favorite tomato scrambled eggs on the table. I suddenly felt that they had no taste at all. So, I put down the bowls and chopsticks in my hands and went to get snacks with great interest. At this time, my father stopped me: "Finish this bowl of rice! Don't waste it!" I pouted and muttered in a low voice: "After the food is finished, how can I still have a stomach?"

Dad He stared at me sternly and lectured me: "You only took a few bites of this bowl of rice, but you don't want to eat anymore. Do you know how to save?" "Our family is not short of this bowl of white rice." I didn't dare to say it. Say, just refute in your heart. Dad seemed to see what I was thinking and said: "Our family is not short of this bowl of rice, but you must know how to cherish it. Food is hard to come by."

”

After dinner, my father proposed to take me to the farmland in the countryside to have a look. The sun was right at the top, so I wore sun protection clothing, only showing my two eyes, and reluctantly followed my father out. Along the way, I I grimaced and lowered my head, thinking why I had to come out at noon to see it, but couldn’t I come in the evening? Until the scene in the farmland deeply shocked my ignorant heart.

Several fields. Farmers were working in the fields with fertilizer bags or medicine boxes on their backs. I saw a middle-aged woman nearest me. She was only wearing a sun hat. Under the brim of the hat, she had a tanned face with large grains. Drops of sweat fell from her forehead, shining with the sunshine, and dripped onto the farmland, but she had no time to wipe them away. At that moment, I lowered my head in shame and understood why my father asked me to save.

On the way home, my father told me that thrifting is not only a respect for labor, but also the source of our accumulation of wealth. I hope that all our primary school students can put thrift into practical actions, cherish food, and strive to be the best. Saving expert!
