1. How does food become the center of power relations between master and slaves?.

Food that is served on the table of slaves is different from whicich could be found on a master's table. It is because slaves can only afford to eat foods that cost less, meanwhile, a slave's master could afford sumptuous meals and banquets. Aside from that, the number of times a slave eats in a day differ from the times his/her master does
