There are few topics more important in this country than the health of our children, and this week on Straight, No Chaser host Katy Keiffer chats with Jessica Donze Black, project director for the Kids’ Safe and Healthful Foods Project at the Pew Health Group, The Pew Charitable Trusts. Together they discuss some of the efforts being made to ensure that all of the food choices available to kids at school are healthy choices. Find out how vending machines can be used for good and why standards like snacks and bake sales need to be re-imagined to achieve food safety at our schools. Learn more about healthy school food here. This program was sponsored by Cain Vineyard & Winery.
"What we want to do is set minimum standards so that all children have access to healthy food choices. We want parents to be comfortable knowing that ALL of the food choices that their children would have at school would be choices [the parents] would be comfortable with."
"The beverage industry has agreed to stop selling full sugar-sweetened beverages to schools, such as full-sugar soda."
"New York is a place that has made some significant changes in the school environment and in early childhood development. So far the results are really encouraging."
--Jessica Donze Black, project director for the Kids’ Safe and Healthful Foods Project on Straight, No Chaser

This week on Hot Grease, our hostess Nicole Taylor sits down with food critic and writer Charles Campion, and Don Sloan from Oxford Gastronomica. Tune in to hear Nicole's weekly food headlines. Charles, and Don talk about Oxford Gastronomica's influence on food culture in Britain, and the upcoming Oxford Literary Festival writing contest. Author and cooking instructor Susan O'Brien joins Nicole via the phone lines to discuss chia seeds and her Hot Five vegan suggestions for Easter or Passover meals. This episode was brought to you by Fairway Market.
"Until Oxford Gastronomica, no one took food and drink very seriously in Britain. There was little in the way of good courses. I firmly believe the more that you can stir up a bit of interest and give it a little cred, the better it is." -- Charles Campion on Hot Grease
"Chia dates back to the early Aztec days, and for many years was considered to be like money- like gold." -- Susan O'Brien on Hot Grease
