Every day, we make choices that have more of an impact than we may realize. In fact, every meal contains a set of choices.
Having recently watched the documentary entitled Food, Inc., I was further awakened to the reality that each meal we eat contains a long chain of choices. In addition to the choices affecting the people who grow, deliver, and prepare the food, there are political and social factors behind the scenes.
Consistent with the ideals of mindfulness, it makes sense to become more aware of the many facets involved in our meals. At the very least, a meal becomes more meaningful when accompanied by mindfulness of our interconnections made through the food.
