There are many factors that will influence the eating habits of each person, no doubt is the very availability, although it is true that individuals do not always consume all the food they have at their fingertips. As commonly stated, though it may seem anexaggeration, it is easier for a person to change their religion before their eating habits, as they have remained stable in successive generations for long periods of time.
