Enjoy Your Meal!

Throughout the year a world of food is lying on our plate and changes the world. Has our food, from being both a temptation for our taste buds and a source of social gathering, degenerated to a matter of conscience?

Under what conditions is it being produced? Fish-breeding ponds polluting the environment, patches of bush being chopped down to have cattle grazing and beans also have their dark side: shortage of water in the region of origin.

If we want to behave like conscious consumers we will have to clear a path through a minefield of moral choices and dilemmas.
