Organic chemistry is the study of carbon based molecules, and those types are excellent for life because they allow for the formation of very large and complex molecules, with a very high number of configurations. Food sources have to be comprised of molecules that can be used by living organisms, and carbon based organic molecules can.
If you mean elemental carbon: Severely burnt food and some sweets that use carbon powder as colorant. Carbon passes the digestive system unaltered. If you mean the chemical element carbon: All, with the exception of water.
during photosynthesis green plants prepare their own food in the presence of sunlight and chlorophyll with the help of water vapor and carbon dioxide from from atmosphere and form carbohydrates as their food
Consumers get their carbon from various sources such as the food they eat, the products they use, and the transportation they take. Carbon is found in a wide range of everyday items, including fossil fuels, plastics, and organic materials.
Carbon can be obtained from various sources, such as the atmosphere, living organisms, fossil fuels, and carbon-containing minerals. Plants absorb carbon dioxide from the air during photosynthesis, which is one way carbon enters the food chain. Additionally, human activities, such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation, release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
Carbon is the element usually found in food that is burned, as burning food involves the oxidation of carbon in the food molecules.
Bacteria seek nutrients such as carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur in their food sources. These nutrients are essential for their growth and metabolism.

Animals breath out carbon dioxide which is made or obtained during cellular respiration. The carbon comes from food sources and the oxygen comes from inhaled air.
Animals are carbon based lifeforms; their celular structure is based on carbon atoms. Animals consume food made of organic molecules, which are based on carbon atoms. Animals breath out carbon dioxide, CO2. Yes, animals use carbon.
All life is carbon based. So if the food is or was once alive, then it is carbon based. Examples would be: Lobster, lettuce, fish, etc.
Yes, plant matter (aswel as us humans) are Carbon based lifeforms
Carbohydrates
All foods are rich in carbon. Life is carbon based. All organic molecules contain carbon. I can think of a few condiments that have no carbon (salt for example).

Some bacteria, called autotrophs, make their own food from the carbon in CO2. Most bacteria are heterotrophs, taking their food 'ready-made' from other sources.
All organic material (which includes food) is made up of carbon, so meat, vegetables, fruits, leaves all carbon based
