A locavore is a person who tries to eat only food grown or made near home — vegetables from nearby farms, bread from a local bakery, fish from the nearest coast. The word was coined in 2005 by four people who started a website called Locavores: Jen Maiser, Jessica Prentice, Sage Van Wing, and DeDe Sampson. They built it from local plus -vore, the same ending as carnivore, “meat-eater.” It began as a clever, slightly playful name, and then it stuck. Though actually, almost nobody eats only local food in a strict sense. Salt, coffee, chocolate, and many travel a long way. In real life a locavore is someone who makes nearby food the rule, not the exception, often for freshness, for the local farm, or to the road from field to plate.
在地飲食者（實踐「地產地消」的人；台灣較常說這句理念，較少直接說 locavore）
