Each analysis construes
- the same Theme: the kind of food we eat,
- the same Subject: the kind of food we eat,
- the same conditional relation between the same Carrier the kind of food we eat and the same Attribute(s) which part of the world we live in (or) which part of our country we live in, and
- the same interdependency (parataxis) and same logico-semantic relation (extension: alternation).
But the first analysis is simpler.
