I cannot stress a greater importance than to teach the young generation about the risks of unhealthy eating. A great way to pique their interest in nutrition is to involve them more in the cooking process. They not only will learn to cook for themselves, but also develop a lifetime of healthy habits.

Agribusinesses should never dictate the quality of school meals.

You can't legislate or litigate good, healthy behavior but we must be willing to educate people at an early age about the affects of unhealthy living.

I think it's very expensive to not eat healthy. Eating healthy is the only affordable option we have left.

Nutrition isn't the only problem; our children also aren't getting enough exercise.

There's no guilt in eating fruits, vegetables, nuts and grains.
