food: anything eaten, especially as a supply or provision
This is the plain, everyday word for food, the things people (and animals) eat. It is the noun built from the common verb "to eat," so it names the eating-stuff itself rather than any single dish or recipe.
In practice it leans toward food viewed as a supply. It is the word for the grain Joseph stockpiles against the famine, the provisions travelers carry, and the rations a household lives on. From there it stretches naturally to the produce a field yields, the prey God provides for wild animals, and even the food set on the LORD's altar. These are not separate meanings, just the one idea of "food" seen in different settings.
Because it is so ordinary, it usually carries no special weight of its own; the meaning comes from what surrounds it, such as who is storing the food, who is going hungry, or who is providing it.
