Raw meat diet



A family in Iowa that on a raw meat diet. I think this video exemplifies group polarity, how one's idea of a healthy diet becomes increasingly extreme. They probably experiences strong social pressure, following their beliefs. Also, cognitive dissonance is also exemplified. It felt by both the family and the wife, about trying each other's diet. In addition, cognitive dissonance probably added slightly to the father's emotional reaction, since he went against his beliefs and his family members are suffering. Perhaps making him less likely to find reason why his family might be sick from cooked food, probably not though.
