%X he starting point of these reflections are some creative expression and narratives performed by social actors which are involved in different groups during an expressive-creative journey organized in the city of Cor-doba in November 2010. They, try to problematize the food security noti-on and its contribution to the focused policies, to analyze by a relational way poverty, hunger and food policy and to analyze the food policy as an identity policy. The research methodology is qualitative. Interviews and focus groups with collective groups of the city which are inserted in con-texts of poverty were done. Some results are: the food security, which is the objective of the National Food Security Plan, shows the segmentation of what in the past was condensed in the concept of social security. In the possible world, a list of monotonous menus that  fill the belly  with  more of the same  is daily used. Nutrition and pleasure have no place in it. The State is the protagonist of this type of food production and reproduction through the food focused policies based on the need. Some of the conclusions return as a question: if naturally the potential personal identity is built by food and social relations,  what biographies will be narrated by hungry children who eat alone following the logic of the focused policies?
