What is hunger?
** Hunger is “the uneasy or painful sensation caused by recurrent or involuntary lack of food” that, over time, may result in malnutrition. When Americans think of hunger, images of starving children living in extreme poverty are the most prominent examples that come to mind. Yet extreme hunger exists only in a few isolated areas in the United States. However, millions of Americans still live in families that are at risk of experiencing food insecurity.
