Why is the VegOut! Challenge important?
“Recipe for Success Foundation is dedicated to combating childhood obesity by changing the way kids understand and eat their food and making healthy food accessible and affordable for everyone.
The easiest way to start is simple increasing our daily consumption of fresh produce.
There are recipes and resources for educators and parents. Regardless of your motivation, whether it be fun competition, exploration of new food, or a personal focus on healthy eating, the end result is the same: A behavior repeated for 30 days is likely to become a habit.” (Recipe for Success)
