REFLECTION QUESTIONHealth More Fruits and VeggiesWhat do you think contributes to people in North America eating more meat than any other places, and what does this say about North American values and ways of living? How can we start shifting from a meat-focused food culture to a more plant-based one?
Boon Bing Ng 10/08/2018 11:43 AMI think people in NA eating more meat is due to the diet culture. I think the way to shift from meat-focused culture to a more plant-based one are through awareness and education to let people understand the benefit of eating more plant-based food.
