You need to pick a real nutritional issue that affects New Zealand families and examine why people believe what they believe about it, what attitudes they hold, and how those beliefs affect the food choices they actually make. You'll explain the reasons behind these beliefs and practices, and consider how evidence either supports or challenges them.
