Digital menu boards for K-12 cafeterias on display at National School Nutrition Association show
July 6, 2010
Green Edge Systems, a provider of technology solutions for K-12 school food services, announced that it is presenting the Epicure Digital K-12 Menu Board System with Nutritional Labeling at the ANC-2010 National School Nutrition Association Exhibition in Dallas next week.
According to the company's press release, menu nutrition labeling has been identified as one of the simplest and most effective ways to fight childhood obesity, with immediate, proven results.
Green Edge Systems will have a live display of the Epicure Digital Menu Board System with nutrition labeling at the show.
Digital menu boards in K-12 schools communicate with students just when they are selecting their food while in line in school cafeterias. Digital menu boards are at the battlefront, ready to combat childhood obesity and educate students to make healthier food choices, the company says.
Nutrition labeling by Epicure Digital informs students to help them make healthier meal choices by displaying nutritional data and icons next to menu items and providing nutritional recommendations and guidelines on multimedia digital menu boards designed for K-12 students.
Digital menu boards in K-12 are not only expected to lead the fight against childhood obesity, but also increase significantly the participation in school lunch and breakfast programs.
Epicure Digital menu boards can also be presented online in a school's website, Green Edge says, allowing parents to view in real time the food choices and advice that their kids get when making their daily food selection, and involve them in the educational and selection process.
