When you think of gourmet food, what comes to mind: Zen Palate, Dean & DeLuca, Vesuvius, School Cafeteria? I didn't think so. What if your students could design their own lunch menu? Now I know what you're thinking:  junk food galore, no way. What if I told you that there could be common ground between proper nutrition and taste. What if I told you that we could also prove that prices could be reasonable for the school and students and that the menu could be setup for different numbers of students? Well, look at each of the lessons on the left to find out how.
