Lick the Plate Clean: The intersection of food, nutrition, and waste

About this resource: The phrase to “lick your plate clean” historically meant to eat everything on your plate, either from hunger or because the meal was so delicious. Sheila’s talk is a 2021 reinterpretation of the phrase and focus on food choice, good nutrition and food waste.

Muriel Bell was an esteemed New Zealand nutritionist and medical researcher. A free public lecture is held in her honour at each of the Annual Scientific Meetings of the Nutrition Society of New Zealand.
