名食物, 食品, 养料维食物

食物通常以碳水化合物、脂肪、蛋白質或水構成，能夠藉由進食或是飲用為人類或者生物提供營養或愉悅的物質。食物的來源可以是植物、動物或者其他界的生物，例如真菌，亦或發酵產品像是酒精。生物攝取食物後，被生物的細胞同化，提供能量，維持生命及刺激成長。
在歷史上，人類主要是透過狩獵採集者及耕種兩種方式獲得食物，其餘的還有畜牧、釣魚等。現在日益增加的世界人口中，大部份需要的食物熱量是由食品产业提供。
經過烹調後的食物被稱為菜餚（粵語稱為餸、餸菜，潮语稱為鹹、咸酸），許多的文化通常都有各式各樣獨特的菜餚、烹飪偏好或方式，而研究文化和食物間關係的學問被稱為美食學。這也促進了文化間藉由進行食物間複雜的貿易進行經濟交流，而不只是消費。
