They say we "eat with our eyes" and a recent study by Brian Wansink proves this to be true. He believes that the simple technique of displaying healthy food more attractively will increase consumption. In a school, he bought a simple wire fruit rack and shone a desk lamp on the variety of fruit for sale and sales increased by 54% in the cafeteria! The beautiful display of a variety of colorful salads, with low fat, yet tasty ingredients will surely tempt those not currently eating vegetables to try these delicious recipes! I coordinate a prenatal and postnatal Healthy Baby group and am always looking for new ways to promote vegetables and fruits. I think this will be a simple way to quickly demonstrate what can be done with a few ingredients. I always get the moms involved in the snack preparation, and am tired of only trying new dips with raw vegetables. Now, all I need is a recipe book with tasty, yet colorful ways to promote milk products to these moms!!!!! :) Judy, this book intrigued me so much that I just ordered it!
