Helena putting aside her vegetarianism to eat meals with the local tribe she is studying.

Explanation:

In cultural relativism, one tries to understand a culture on the terms it contains and not make judgements with the standards of his or her own culture. No one culture stands superior to another type of culture and the goal of culture relativism, is to propagate the understanding of different cultural practices that are quite different from ones type of culture.
