Thing you pick up in nature (a fruit, for example, like apple) still called food.
But i like your idea, perhaps we rephrase it. What about call it "dishes" or "cuisines"
=> is "cuisines" a social construct.
But then how can I torment a teenager who says "We don't have any food in the house!" by reminding them that food is a social construct? They're never gonna end up saying "We don't have any cuisines in the house!"
