Food is a great blessing from God. We must acknowledge the Lord for His favour by keeping us alive and nurture us through food and water.
Allah says in the Quran: "If you are grateful, I will give you more. But if you are ungrateful, my punishment is severe," [Surah Ibrahim verse 7]
Keeping in mind this important Quran verse about gratitude, we must focus on thanking Allah for His countless blessings, and food is one of them.
Alhamdulillahil lazi at'amani haaza wara-zaqaneehi min ghairi hawlim-minn-ni wala quwwah
Praise be to Allah Who has fed me this food and provided it for me without any strength and power on my part
