How about
SELECT p_id, f_id
FROM
person as p
LEFT JOIN
(SELECT f.p_id, max(f.id), f_item
FROM food) as f
ON p.p_id = f.p_id
Create an index on Food (p_id, seq #)
This may not gain any performance, but worth a try. I don't have any
data similar

table is really needed. I would suggest rewriting your FROM clause. It
