Healthier Restaurant Foods for Kids? I'll Believe It When I See It

One year ago this month the National Restaurant Association had me really looking forward to 2012 with its top 10 list of predictions for culinary trends in the new year:

St. Louis World Food Day

Event Date: 
Fri, 10/12/2012

World hunger is the focus of St. Louis World Food Day and a special effort at John Burroughs School to package meals for hungry and critically malnourished children in Tanzania.

World Health Organization statistics suggest that a child dies every six seconds from malnutrition and related illnesses, and World Food Day is designed to increase understanding of this problem and also take action to stop it.
