Food Day Highlights Challenges of Changing Nutrition Habits


Today (WED) is being marked as  Food Day in many communities nationwide. This annual event, created by the Center for Science in the Public Interest, is part of a concerted national and local effort to make healthy foods more widely available, particularly in low-income areas.  But while programs and systems are gradually evolving to put more fresh food on more tables, changing eating habits can be considerably more complicated. Elana Gordon reports from Kansas City, Kansas, for Harvest Public Media.

This story was produced in conjunction with Harvest Public Media, a collaborative project utilizing journalists from Kansas Public Radio and other public radio stations throughout the Midwest. To learn more about Food Day, and other stories connected to food and agriculture, visit the Harvest Public Media website.
