Abstract

The paper is oriented on area of “wellness gastronomy” with focusing to show the parallels between incorporative style towards food consumption, in family abuse, and while consuming natural sources. The basic psychological approach is objectification and dominancy towards weak and vulnerable beings and environment. When a living being became an object in front of our eyes it can be punished, slaved, or devoured any time. The tactless and aggressive behaviour of the Western societies based on this logic that is an expansive patriarchal style of behaviour that is going to enslave and possess whatever is on the way. Today economical and environmental disasters can be driven back to this attitude.
