Telling people to eat something in "moderation" is meaningless. Technically, eating a given food less than 100% of the time is still moderation. Even eating the same particular food at literally every meal could still be considered "moderation" if people choose a smaller serving than they would like. Many people think that having a certain food daily is still "moderation" if they only have it at dinner and not at breakfast or lunch. If you really want people to limit a food like red meat or soda or whatever, tell them a specific amount (e.g., "Drink up to one can of soda a week at most" or "Eat less than one serving of beef a month"). People need a specific goal to shoot for or to compare their habits to. These goals could be based on the habits of the healthiest humans, or on world averages. So if the average human eats red meat say once a week, but Americans eat more, why not tell Americans to aim for at least average? Overeating and meat and dairy consumption are not merely personal choices. They profoundly affect the health, safety and economic wellbeing of other humans.
