diseases.

Moral or Ethical Needs
•
Moral standards:
• Vegetarian or vegan
- do not believe in causing harm to the
animal. Vegetarians avoid meat and fish.
Vegans avoid eating animal products
• Eat a healthy, balanced diet
- follow the principles of the eat well
diagram
• Organic
- ingredients are grown without the use
of pesticides or chemicals. They are
produced naturally
- for ingredients that are produced abroad,
farmers are paid a fair wage for their crops
as if they were produced in Britain – this
helps to reduce poverty
• Fair trade
Moral or Ethical Needs
• Only eat British grown
- food items have been farmed in Britain
therefore reducing the amount of food
miles used and the carbon footprint
• Red tractor endorsed
- food items have been farmed in Britain to
assured safety standards
• Ecotarian
- only eat foods with the least amount of
food miles and carbon footprint, recyclable
an sustainable produce
Moral or Ethical Needs
• Free range
- eggs or chickens have had a free space
in which to live rather than battery farming
• Non irradiated
- the food has not been treated with
radiation
• Poverty
- 70% of 3rd world countries farmed
produce is exported to different countries
this sustains their economy but keeps them
in poverty – we should be eating seasonal
produce from our own areas.
