I had so much fun compiling this list! 📚

If you’re looking for books to get young eaters excited about how food fuels our bodies, I hope my new list for @bookdna.bsky.social can help:

This is why #FoodLiteracy and #MediaLiteracy now belong together.
We need to teach them to look at the screen and ask:
- Why is this food glowing?
- Is this a meal, or a performance of a meal?
- Is this food being shown as nourishment, entertainment, or a dare?
- What is missing from the frame?
An elementary school nutrition teacher in #Korea shared a sobering crisis from the cafeteria floor.

Kids are increasingly refusing ordinary meals, demanding the meat-heavy, hyper-seasoned foods they see on screens.

Even a spoonful of spinach has become a daily battle.

#EfES thought for today...💭
Young people go into the shop & see plastic bottles labelled "This is Food". Chemically speaking, they may be right. But how incredibly sad. Where are the cultural links, the joy of taste, the different textures, or even the connection to Earth. We need #FoodLiteracy 🍏

A campus garden is never just a garden. Growing food teaches literacy, ecology, and collective action, and 80+ Canadian campuses now have one. Small plots, planetary stakes.

From PQB Fruit Tree Project:

“There's still room in today's #FoodLiteracy and Kitchen Economics class, a topic that might be even more relevant now than ever. 12:30-3:30 at the Bradley Centre. Learn how to stock a pantry, how to save money making processed foods from scratch…

What does it actually take to grow a sustainable food movement?

Sustainable diets are built by people and movements, not by better information alone.

After school learning never tasted so good! #TeamAshby joined SCUSD Trustee Michael Benjamin at Oakridge Elementary for a hands-on afterschool cooking class, where students whipped up a delicious cactus-and-corn salsa served on a tostada.

Happy birthday, #ZorasZucchini! 🥳

Thank you for 10 years of storytimes, #zucchini photos & recipes, and for sharing this book with the young people in your life. She’s the best ambassador for building community through food I ever could have asked for. 💚🥒💚
