ethical eating

Morally-guided food choices

Ethical eating is an approach to food choices guided by moral considerations beyond personal health or taste.

People who practice ethical eating may avoid factory-farmed meat, choose locally sourced produce, reject foods linked to exploitative labor practices, or follow vegetarian and vegan diets.

The specific principles vary widely—some focus on animal welfare, others on environmental impact or fair trade.
