National SNACK FOOD month?!?! Wow...America's really in trouble!
This is fan-double-tastic! Love it. I'm going to spread the word far and wide to friends and family. Thanks Alicia!
Thanks for the update :)
love this! i will be celebrating the day (and every other day) by eating out of my garden and using my csa bounty while hosting a kitchen garden party in the fields of my garden. how exciting. i can't wait to come up with a menu. ;)
i will also be forwarding this link to everyone in my email address book and tweeting about it. ;)
thanks alicia & roger!
Frankly, I get tired of potato chips..Kale Chips are so much better! Thanks for sharing this !!
Sunday Aug 22 is my bday and this is a great way to celebrate!
But also Snack Food Month can be fought by consuming healthy snacks and talking about it. A couple choice ads would be amazing as well. Celebs eating healthy and amazing vegan snacks! So many options. It could be really fun to pirate the month with nutritious delicious choices.
I vote for hummus and carrot dippers!
Wow. That info about Snack Food Month is just frightening. It is like an April Fools joke. I just had a look at the Snack Foods Association website and under Who We Are it say Educates!
Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Wow what I great blog, I agree with Bruise the info on Snack Food Month is awful. I will post a blog about this tomorrow on my blog www.mrs-adventure.com and see about getting others to link up!
I just went onto their website and it's kind of comical....The crazy thing is that they're even honest in their aim which is to get people to eat more crappy food!!! I don't know whether to laugh or cry...
This scheme is great though and so important, especially for kids. My granfather passed away this month at 92 and the fondest memory I have of my childhood is growing tomatoes and cucumbers with him. (We tried potatoes one year but the concept never really caught on....)
Kids should be outside learning, playing and making. Eating fresh and healthy food with an emphasis on its origin. I worry sometimes about a generation that may never understand the joy or the excitment on running out in the morning on dewy grass to see if the zuchini is ready to be cut or if the tomatoes are big, fat and juicy enough to be picked and bitten into.
What a great concept! World Kitchen Garden Day! Gotta love it!
