Snacking Smart

48% of recently surveyed K-12 Foodservice Directors described meeting Smart Snack regulations as “extremely or very challenging,” but with the new rule’s focus on the health value of fresh fruit, precut ready-to-serve fruit and fruit salad are an excellent solution.1

Go Global

During the 2019-20 school year, nearly half of all school districts are planning to offer new menu items that feature more international flavors, according to the 2019 School Nutrition Trends Report. This reflects the growing popularity of international flavors among adult diners over the past several years. If this parallel growth continues expect to see increases in the presence of international flavors on menus for years to come.2

Low A-Peel

In a recent survey of K-12 Foodservice directors, 86% of participants indicated that the new fruit requirements for breakfast have increased food costs, impacting profit margins. Pre-cut fruit, due to its 100% yield, is an excellent way to effectively deliver great breakfast favorites that meet new regulations while eliminating profit-draining waste.3
