I started making regular meals at home to reduce the plastic that I am consuming due to food orders. We started preferring to go out if we want to have a meal. This way, we get to spend quality time together and reduce the usage of plastic while doing it.

REFLECTION QUESTIONFood, Agriculture, and Land UseWhile dishing food out, we tend to load our plates with more than we need. Using smaller plates helps to mitigate this. Aside from the environmental benefits, what other benefits might come from eating/serving smaller portions?
Naga Hara Sathyasree Tammisetti 10/08/2025 12:08 PMIt helps in being mindful of what and how much we eat. It helps to control our cravings and food habits.
We tend to feel full when we see a full plate. Smaller plate size would help with portion control.
