Cut one questionable item out of your diet



This is something everyone can do, whether your choice this time has to do with environmental, health, financial, animal welfare, human welfare or other reasons. There's no shortage of things to choose from:


Foie gras?
Kobe beef?
Veal?
Any seafood cooked alive?
Palm oil sourced from the rainforest?
Eggs from caged chickens?
Out-of-season tomatoes?
Excessively and unnecessarily wrapped bananas?
Foods with insultingly dumb packaging?


Effort involved: just a bit of research, tops. I’m not suggesting that you completely overhaul your diet, just remove one thing, making this act very easy to remember. It's like Lent, but for life.
