Obesity is the number 1 public health issue in the United States. It is of epidemic proportions and is considered a crisis by nationally recognized health organizations. The prevalence of obesity among kids and teens has tripled in the last 30 years. One-third of America's children are overweight or obese and almost 10% of infants and toddlers are heavy.

Offering healthy food to your children can be stressful and inconvenient. Let Commune Foods take the stress off your shoulders and provide you with a convenient way to insure that your child is getting a healthy lunch. At Commune Foods our resident dietitian and professional chef work together to develop healthy recipes, purchase local organic foods (whenever possible), prepare the food and make sure you receive healthy lunches for your children that are ready to be placed in school backpacks.

Commune Foods lunches provide more healthy foods (more fresh fruits, vegetables and whole grains) and less saturated fat, salt, trans fats and artificial additives. We believe children’s lunches should consist of a meat or protein source, a bread or grain source, and a fruit and/or vegetable. Beverages at lunchtime should be low in calories (and sugar) and should not include energy drinks or caffeinated beverages. You will see that the quality of foods that your child receives is improved when you order Commune Foods lunches.

By purchasing Commune Foods lunches you are providing an opportunity for your child to be successful in school, sports and in life as well as begin thinking about food choices and eating behaviors that will last their lifetime. Commune Foods looks forward to creating healthy lunch options for your children!
