Food is essential to life, but it also has the power to make a person happy or miserable.
For some, sweet is supreme.
“My favorite food is Biscoff cookies, because they are the best,” Mrs. Allison Puckett, science department, said.
For some people, pizza is the best invention ever.
“Delano’s Pizza, because the pizza and fries there are amazing,” Jaysean Barley said. “My favorite is pepperoni.”
“If I had only 24 hours to live, I would eat cheese pizza,” Jayden Myers, freshman, said. “I would eat it as my last meal, because I just love pizza.”
“One food I would eat if I had 24 hours left to live is my grandma’s breakfast biscuits,” Ms. Wade, substitute teacher, said. “They are made with love, and I would love that to be the last thing I eat before my life is over.”
Another favorite is ethnic food.
“Panda Express is my favorite place to eat at, because I love the flavor of their orange chicken,” James Lewis, senior said.
“If I had 24 hours left to live, I would eat lots of Mexican food,” Linwood Crawley, senior, said. “The flavor of all Mexican food makes me happy, so I would love to eat that as my last meal.”

Food connects people in different ways. Some see it as comfort, others as a simple favorite, and some tie it back to family and memories.
