Flashback: Kamala Harris said she would support eating less meat if elected president

Vice President Harris previously said she supported changing the food pyramid to incentivize Americans to eat less red meat because of climate change.

"I think the point that you're raising in a broader context, which is that, as a nation, we actually have to have a real priority at the highest level of government around what we eat and in terms of healthy eating because we have a problem in America," Harris said. "We can talk about the subject of this conversation, we can talk about the amount of sugar in everything, we could talk about soda. We could go on and on." "So the answer is yes," she continued. "I will also say this: the balance that we have to strike here, frankly, is about what government can and should do around creating incentives, and then banning certain behaviors. Just to be very honest with you, I love cheeseburgers from time to time, right? I just do. But there has to be also what we do in terms of creating incentives that we will eat in a healthy way, that we will encourage moderation, and that we will be educated about the effect of our eating habits on our environment. We have to do a much better job at that, and the government has to do a much better job at that."
