Curious Cook: We don’t know enough about what is in the food we eat

We don’t know enough about what is in the food we eat, for instance, did you know that garlic contains more than 2,230 other chemical components, including allicin, the organo-sulphur compound responsible for the distinctly pungent aroma of raw garlic, especially when pressed or crushed? - 123rf.com

Dark matter, the fascinating structure of the universe is a possible analogy for our food.

Anyone with any interest in astronomy would be aware that the observable matter in our skies make up less than 5% of the material making up the universe. The rest is made up of exotic stuff such as dark energy (approximately 68%) and dark matter (roughly 27%), both of which are still inexplicable and unobservable to astronomers. This roughly reflects the true state of knowledge we have about what we are really eating.
