🍎 The ABCs of Child Nutrition: Letter J Edition! 🍎

We’ve reached the letter J, and it turns out this is one of our busiest letters yet! From local partnerships to the team members we see every day, here’s the “J” lineup:

🥛 Jeppsen’s Milk: Talk about local dedication! This company heads up to Logan in the wee hours of the weekend to pick up our locally sourced milk and deliver it fresh to our schools.

🥣 Jugs: They might seem simple, but jugs are a true kitchen staple that we use for everything from mixing to measuring throughout the day.

🧼 Janitors: While they are officially our custodians, we simply call them essential! We truly couldn’t keep the cafeterias clean, safe, and running smoothly without their hard work.

🧃 Juice: Our high-volume hero! Juice is actually the item we buy the most of, and it’s served with breakfast almost every single day.

🥔 Jicama: Looking for a refreshing snack? Jicama provides a lovely, unique crunch that students love to discover in our veggie lineups.

🌶️ Jalapeños: Whether they are served fresh or canned, they are the perfect way to add a little extra spice and kick to our favorite dishes.

👩‍🍳 Our “J” Employees: Who knew J was our most popular letter? We have more employees starting with J than any other letter in the alphabet! To all our Jills, Jennifers, Jessicas, and everyone in between—thank you for all you do for our students.

✂️ Innoseal: We love our sealers! These help us quickly create veggie bags and secure a whole lot of other items to keep food fresh and portable.

🍦 Ice Cream: It’s a celebration whenever ice cream hits the menu! Our students especially love our locally sourced Creamies—a delicious community favorite.

🥬 Iceberg Lettuce: A true kitchen staple! Whether it’s adding a crunch to a burger or serving as a fresh base for a side dish, it’s a versatile must-have.

🧊 Ice Machines: A kitchen essential! Our ice machines work overtime to ensure we have plenty of ice for food safety, cold storage, and keeping beverages chilled.

👩‍🍳 Irma: We have to highlight our only “I” name employee! We love Irma and are so incredibly grateful for the hard work and heart she pours into her job every single day.
