Answer: Don't oversimplify

Explanation:

In terms of critical thinking, oversimplify is defined as reduction or gathering of multiple causes for any situation or event in a single unit or few units. Explanation of that situation becomes unreasonable as all causes are not considered while thinking and analyzation process to make conclusion.

According to the question, situation of Robert is defining oversimplification in terms of critical thinking because he sums all the reasons behind Californians eating their own grown vegetables as over-passionate trait towards nutrition. Thus, he is not considering every cause.
