Food biodiversity is like having a big box of crayons with lots of different colors. Just like crayons, food also comes in lots of different colors and types. This is good for many reasons because it gives us different flavors to enjoy, and it also helps our bodies stay healthy by giving us different vitamins and nutrients.
Imagine if you only had one color of crayon or one type of food to eat. That would be boring and not very healthy. Just like how having more crayon colors can help you create beautiful artwork, having more types of food can help you create a healthy and delicious meal.
Sadly, some crayon colors and types of food are starting to disappear. This is because people are only growing and eating certain kinds and not the others. This is not good because it means we are losing the variety of colors and flavors in our artwork and meals, but also important vitamins and nutrients that we need to stay healthy.
So it is very important to protect and preserve food biodiversity by growing and eating different kinds of food. That way, we can have a beautiful and delicious array of food to enjoy, and also make sure our bodies stay healthy and strong.
