Taste-Testing & Education
School districts want to provide meals students will actually eat, provide nutritional value, and meet NSLP standards. Students can be picky and don’t always want to “eat their vegetables”.
Food Rules! is our educational taste-testing program offered exclusively by Nutrition ONE.
We roll out innovative ingredients, farm-fresh fruits, and vegetables for the student population. We give them nutritional facts and speak to sustainability to encourage kids to “eat the rainbow”.
With enough interest in a new ingredient, it may be introduced into the menu rotation.
Food Rules! gauges feedback on the current menu and potential future menus. Students learn about ingredients and have an opportunity to try something new!

Food Programs Designed With Your District’s Input
“Nutrition ONE not only contracted with us during the 2014-2015 school year, but also took on the huge responsibility of having to go through an NSLP administrative review with us during our first contract year together.
The company never hesitated and agreeing to work with us and insured us that we would not have the same issue with them that we had with prior companies. The can-do attitude and willingness of this company to jump in and do whatever is possible to make sure the students are not only eating but enjoying the food, has been a breath of fresh air for us.”
