From school foodservice to the kids’ menu at America’s restaurants and retail products targeted toward a youthful demographic, nutrition is firmly top-of-mind these days. School foodservice is particularly hot of late as first lady Michelle Obama—and the Obama administration in general—continues to work toward real institutional changes in that arena via the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act, which recently passed the Senate, and the Chefs Move to Schools program, among other initiatives.
Anyone working in these arenas—or looking to tap into this growing market—would be wise to tune into an upcoming Webinar we’ll be running on the subject, “Child Nutrition & Whey Protein: Policy, Consumer Trends and Food Fortification,” on Thursday Sept. 9 at 2:00 P.M. (EST). Attendees will gain insight from a representative of the National Dairy Council and Dairy Management Inc.™ and webinar sponsors Hilmar Ingredients into recent nutrition policy and legislation shaping dietary guidance for children (including details on the new Dietary Guidelines for Americans), school-nutrition standards, regulation of marketing and advertising to children, trends that drive Mom’s food choices, and even some examples of formulations for nutritious—yet delicious—foods and beverages.
