Emergency food bags offer more than food
Article Abstract:
A workshop was conducted at an urban food assistance program to teach food packers with the principles of Canada's Food Guide to Healthy Eating to guide them in properly monitoring the nutritional adequacy of emergency food packages. Comparison of prepacked food bags with the participants' emergency food bags was done to evaluate the adequacy of nutritional content of emergency food bags and the participants' intake. The workshop enabled the food bag packers to understand the importance of properly balancing the food bags based on the Food Guide.
