As a mom who makes all the menu plans, the one who grocery shops, and the one who cooks for my family, it's clear to me that by making easy meal changes, I can make a positive impact on how my family eats. In the book Mindless Eating: Why We Eat More Than We Think, by Dr. Brian Wansink, he shares how even small changes in people’s everyday food decisions can make a positive difference on their health.
