At smaller fruit and vegetable tastings conducted in June, students were given the opportunity to taste bananas, strawberries, apples, grape tomatoes, and carrots. The fruits and veggies were served raw with a ranch dressing dip.
After the Super Foods for Super Kids meal and tasting, teachers used the events to start discussions in the classroom about nutrition. Students received fact sheets about each fruit or vegetable sampled, and were given recipes to take home and share with their families.
Afterward, all students completed an online evaluation of the meal and the tastings.
