In the fast-paced world we live in, family meals have become a rare occurrence. With busy work schedules, extracurricular activities, and the constant distractions of technology, it can be difficult to find the time and space to sit down and eat together as a family. However, research has shown that family meals are incredibly important for the well-being of both children and adults. They provide a time for families to connect, bond, and share stories. They also help children to develop healthy eating habits and improve their overall health.

In her new book, "Back to the Table," Anya Kamenetz argues that family meals are worth fighting for. She provides a wealth of evidence to support her claim, and she offers practical tips for families who want to make family meals a regular part of their lives.
