Chicagoan Jason Savsani believes that sharing a home cooked meal with someone is one of the most intimate things you can do because, aside from learning new tastes, you also learn about new cultures and people. On a trip to Siem Reap, Cambodia, a Cambodian family cooked him a meal. For WBEZ's Global Activism, Savsani tells "Worldview" how eating and sharing tales from their respective homelands inspired him to create Meal Sharing, which aims to help people eat healthier, waste less and break down cultural barriers.
