Then, if you live near one of the restaurants (O’Naturals, Evos, and Organics to Go), go and see for yourself. Taste the food and check-out the experience of healthy fast-food.

And, what about the health of the planet? Fast-food - organic or conventional - is all single wrapped in paper, plastic or Styrofoam. So, the waste factor is still the same.

While I have been a customer at Evos and enjoyed their food, I am not sold on the fact that it is full of healthy nutrients or that it is better for the environment. Tell me what you think.

The University of North Carolina nutrition majors partnered with the second annual Kids in the Kitchen exhibit sponsored by the Junior League of Durham and Orange Counties in NC. They set on hands on activities to allow the kids to touch, taste and smell foods unfamiliar to them. Believe it or not, the foods included carrots, snow pea and other common vegetables.

The best lines in the article: “For the most part, kids are really good at self-monitoring based on their appetite.” The problem? “One of the biggest obstacles we face is parents who are not willing to be the role model.” And, “If we can grab the kids in elementary school and teach them, they can actually convince their parents.” To read the full article, CLICK HERE.

This confirms the advice given to me by a wonderful healer, Dr. George Stovall. He says “if you can convince the kids, they will convince the adults and change will occur.” So, to all of you working in the field of family nutrition - go for the kids! And, the adults will follow.
