Abstract

Human life comprises various elements. Food, clothing and shelter are the most essential and basic ones. As time passed several changes happened in the food habits of people. The differences between the rural and urban areas are very prominent, and so are their eating pattern of them. So how this line of difference comes to the point of cohabitation? How come the so-called obscured food items get into prominence after being commercialized? –this will be the main focus of the paper. Apart from that, rural folks are influenced by social media. This exposure to virtual reality impacted them in various ways. By using social networking, food has become the language of communication between different cultures. Nowadays, people come to know about the food habits of other cultures quite easily. Before this, the source of knowledge was limited and also the availability of the ingredients was limited. Here technology plays a crucial role because today the fluency of information very much depends on it. Time changes so people and their choices.
