Healthy Snack Line-Up
Rochester Community Schools Food Service Department has a healthy snack line-up based on the Michigan Action for Healthy Kids Recommendations.
All of our single-serving snacks meet the Michigan Action for Healthy Kids Recommendations, which are:
Single-serving snacks (except for nuts, seeds and cheese) should have no more than 6 grams of fat, and meet at least two of the following criteria:
-
Contain 300 or fewer calories
-
One or more grams of fiber, or
-
At least 10% of Calcium, Iron, Vitamin A or C
We have attempted to provide healthy snacks which not only meet the above criteria, but are appealing, affordable, and taste great.
