QUOTES:

• “They always say, you know, you eat breakfast like a king, you eat lunch like a prince, and you eat dinner like a pauper. It's something like that. Breakfast for me, you know, if there was an advocacy on making everyone eat breakfast, I'd be there because I think it's the most important meal of the day.” - Chit Juan
• “People often encounter these challenges because they reason out that they don't cook. But for me, not being able to cook is not a reason not to eat well.” - Chit Juan
• “If you're invited to a restaurant for a meeting, you can be nice and not be snobbish about it, but look at the better choices. So being good and green is also learning to adapt to situations or changing the situation in the future.” - Chit Juan
• “Anything we don't know about that we consume or imbibe could be the cause of a lot of discomfort. So, again, I don't want you to be a snob, but I want you to know to be mindful.” - Chit Juan

QUOTES:

• "Part of being green is also reducing the movement of goods or logistics. So we spend less on transport and more on the food." - Chit Juan
• "It's very disheartening to know that some people actually are not aware that these local fruits are endangered because we don't see them anymore. You know, we always see imported fruits, but there is a lack of appreciation and education for local produce." - Chit Juan
• "You can also open your mind to understanding what is organic, what is hydroponic, and what is natural. Natural farming, organic. So people are overwhelmed sometimes with all this information, but actually if you sit down and think about it, our ancestors were actually doing organic ways." - Chit Juan
