NBC40 Health Update

This past week I had to opportunity to tape a spot segment on NBC40's Health update. The channel is available in the Atlantic County, Cape May County, and part of Ocean County area of New Jersey. The segment I taped was on Summer Food Safety and will be aired during the week of June 20-27. The segment airs 10 times over the course of the week and will be available online at www.nbc40.net. If you have ideas for segments that can be suggested to the local station please let me know!!!

Cooking Across America

If you (or your students) are interested in learning more about the history of American food then you must visit the Key Ingredients America By Food website. The site allows you to learn about food and recipes by various regions of our country. You can also submit your own recipe to the collection that has been created by numerous people across the nation. If you are looking for food related events you can locate them too. The America By Food exhibit features 500 years of our food history and is traveling across the country... it could be stopping at a community near your town this summer. The exhibit is in Allentown, New Jersey now and will be in Cape May County, New Jersey between July 19 and August 31! Check it out!
