Summary

Recently one of Wendy's BFFs posted a photo of a meal online and she was instantly food shamed. One of her followers quickly chastised her for not being vegan and went on to say that her way of eating was unhealthy and that she was basically setting herself up for a life of chronic disease. As dietitians, we wanted to take a stand when it comes to the rampant food shaming that is happening both online and in person. In this episode, we dissect what food shaming looks like, why it doesn't work and what to do instead.

We've seen this happen so many times

1:12.1

The time yeah, and it gets me so upset when

1:17.3

People do things like this and they talk to people in that way so
