Abstract
Food formed the foundation from where fulfillment of all other needs start. On the one hand, the growth of the food processing industry by leaps and bounds providing variety of foods and on the other hand getting adequate food has remained an illusion for millions worldwide. The most vulnerable groups are children and women, especially pregnant and lactating mothers and elders who are unable to earn their food on their own. The problem of food insecurity is prevalent in almost all countries of the world.
