Capcs 2 Pal Breakfast !!! Pink What !!! Pink Slime !!


Capcs 2 PAL Breakfast



5 Flavors Of Chi attended the last Pal Breakfast for the school year hosted by academy leader Mrs. Tanya Morgan. She is absolutely the best!!

Thank you for having us and for all of your support Mrs. Morgan.

We introduced the Initiative again to parents attending the breakfast. They received Go Mambo sample packets again thanks to Go Mambo!! They also received Safety Food Shoppers Guides.

The ingredients and benefits were listed on a handout flyer. We discussed the programs focus and goals.

Also touched briefly on why educating children at a young age on the importance of eating healthy and developing habits at a young age are important. The Pink Slime http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pink_slime controversy was talked about and discussed Yuk!!!

We discussed the state of our health nationally among children (mainly the obesity epidemic) and adults and the overall food system in general and why it needs to change.

There was also a viewing of video excerpts from a educational health documentary.

The parents were engaged and interested in the information and message.

One of the parents wanted to start juicing right away which was great!!


It’s always a treat to inform and educate others!!! Especially when they get it and it helps them become aware of other choices!!!

Eat Well!! Be Well!!
