Food literacy is understanding the impact of your food choices on your health, the environment, and your community. Understanding nutrition and food is pivotal to making healthy choices. Food literacy is something that often goes untaught and many people are unaware that it is even something they should learn.
Food literacy is important both short term and long term. The benefits of proper food education extend beyond the individual to the community and even the planet when considering the environmental impact that poor food literacy can have. Make sure you have the necessary knowledge yourself, then spread it to your family and practice it throughout your community.
