Could not agree more.Just need to find an easy way that makes people realise they are the ones ultimately deciding what they put on their plates. Although I do not minimise the difficulty for some people to put their food habits on the top of their list.

I'd say for a lot of people, their food budget decides what is on their plate.
Look at this list of the cheapest food:

Even sticking to that list there's an enormous difference between eggs and beans versus brownies and pancakes. And rural poor can grow the eggs in the backyard for chicken feed, and often do. Only the most desperate can't make consequential decisions about what's on the plate.
