It is an uncountable noun, because it does not have plural form.
Explanation:
Countable nouns are those, which can be used with numbers and have plural forms.
For example "cookie" is a countable noun because you can say: "five cookies"
Food is an example of uncountable noun because you cannot say "four foods". It is a general noun like money, love, etc.
