Snacks can be an important part of a child (or an adult) meeting their nutritional needs. Many kids come home from school hungry or low on energy. School lunch may be at 10:30 AM and by 3:00 PM their growing bodies need to fuel up and fast after a long day.
What does "snack" mean to you?
Diet culture has co-opted the word snack for many people. For some, they may have a memory or experience of a diet rule that said “don’t eat between meals.” For others, the word “snack” may mean only “snack foods” like chips and crackers.
We like to think of a snack as a mini-meal. Howev ..read more

Do you enjoy the holidays, but not the diet talk that is often a part of holiday celebrations? We have compiled tips and recipes to help your holidays be free of diet culture! Or at least, help you feel supported with information during this time that can often be filled with diet-centered comments about bodies and food.
We asked anti-diet colleagues for tips and recipes for this holiday season. We love what they created and are thrilled to share their wisdom with you!

It's Summertime! In North Carolina, Summer means an abundance of amazing tomatoes, berries, and peaches and a great time to teach children nutrition education! Instead of teaching kids about nutrients and what they "should" or "shouldn't eat," talk to children about where food comes from, what's in season, and maybe even head out to a farmer's market or "U Pick" farm, if possible. THIS is nutrition education!
Summertime Nutrition Education: What’s in Season?
When teaching children about nutrition, a developmentally appropriate topic is learning about what produce is in season. Many of ..read more
