Not Too Sweet is going to push back against the racist, fatphobic, shaming trashfire that Diet Culture is, by discussing the power of balancing cultural foods for joy and nourishment. Protecting API lives, includes helping us live longer by preventing and fighting cancer and diabetes, which majorly impact our diasporas. Pull up a chair, let’s sit together!

 

About the speaker:

Karima Chellouf, CNP, is a proud/aggressively Asian chef, nutritionist, educator, writer, presenter, content creator (and more!), who uses words, food, history, and jokes to connect people in an effort to make sense of the world around us.

For the past decade and a half, Karima has survived in “Vancouver’s” elevated dining scene and fine patisseries, while bringing fire and humour to independent work. These celebrations of culture, community, and food justice (plus the occasional comedy roast of bigotry) have been featured by local and international media and events.
