REFLECTION QUESTIONFoodIn your opinion, what contributes to people in North America eating more meat than any other countries? What does this say about North American values and ways of living?
Maureen Green-Rabbitt 4/10/2019 11:04 AMThe cost of meat is cheaper than vegan options. North American values are driven by economic factors.
