This week UC CalFresh attended Family Literacy Night at Bart Harte Elementary School! Sugar displays were exposed for families to see the exact amount of sugar in beverages they consume in hopes of encouraging families to rethink their drinks.  They learned to choose healthier beverage options that include little to no sugar. Children were given a healthy whole grain snack, popcorn. Many were amazed to learn that popcorn can be a healthy snack without adding butter to it. Parents were interested in attending adult nutrition classes to learn more about making healthier choices for their families.
