What it Means for Advocates:

Host a Shabbat meal for your friends and/or family.  When it comes time to recite the blessings for the wine and bread use it as a learning moment and educate your guests about the origins of the foods that they are about to consume.  Facilitate a conversation about food choices and what people are or are not eating and why.  Why are they making these choices?  Why are you making particular choices?  Are there any trends or patterns amongst your guests?
