thankssssss =]

I LOVE YOGURT
and all fruits!!
esp. apple. honeydew, and blueberry!

oh and i love ALL SMOOOOTHIES :D

are you talking about the cafeteria or machines?

cafeteria:
yogurt and granola cups
salads
fruit cups
veggie and dip cups

machines:
v8
dried fruit bags (i think they have like apple crisps or something)
lays baked chips
bottled water

thanks diandian! btw guys, when you mention a product plz tell me what specific brand you like =] thanks :)

bombshell =] it doesn't matter caff or vending machine, we'll be selling the products just to test them out for next year.

i love yogurt and veggies!

we just got rid of all the pop vending machines at my school this year. now we only sell apple juice, water, and other fruit juices for $1.25 a can or $1.50 a bottle. lots of people drink it, so i think people would definitely buy it.

also does your school have a cafeteria? mine serves lunch everyday. we used to serve french fries but we had to get rid of them since it was considered junk food. i think the healthiest thing we serve is salad. clubs are also allowed to fundraise at lunch by selling food. currently people are selling things like sushi, fresh slice pizza, dim sum (ha gau and su mai, LOl excuse my phonetic spelling), and viet subs, but i guess those aren't really THAT healthy. however it's good for fundraising.

i know when i was in highschool we had wraps and sandwiches... so maybe trying to make those more healthier. For example: veiggie wraps, whole grain bread. Also like i don't remember but if they can choose the sides like salad vs. fries.

how about having fruit available for them to buy? like not in a fruit cup but like a banana, or apple, or orange that they can just grab and go?

at my school, i think they over price all the healthy stuff WAY TO MUCH
like our "fruit cups" are more expensive than fries or pop
and the quantity is way less


oh and for juice, i'd say go for sunripe.
their juice doesn't have as sugar in comparison with dole or five alive...etc
and its also the healthier choice

-edit-
oh trailmix, pretzels and sunchips are a healthier alternative too

Apple juice by far. You should also try getting some of those healthy Oasis drinks with probiotics and stuff.

Green Tea -> Boosts your immune system and your metabolism.

Blueberries, raspberries, blackberries -> All good. Promotes a healthy body and brain.

Eggs -> Omega 3 Fatty acids help keep your blood low.

Whole grain breads and cereals.

Dairy -> Low fat, Yogurt, Cheese.

Vegetables.

various kinds of soup!

donairs r good =)

how about like:
thin crust veggie pizza and or with chicken
chicken bake (ie. like costco... but not as much cheese)
hummus and pita
greek salad

i once saw these things that was a breaded traingle spinach thing. i doubt it was healthy because it was probably fried, but it does have spinach!

i'm getting hungry now...

i think selling yogurt would be good

my school took out all the chocolate bars and pop machines too ! only selling milk2go and water and lays baked chips and some healthy stuff !

It was probably baked tortillias / pita bread with a spinach dip. They serve it at kelseys (I think it was kesleys). Its quite good.

spanakopitas? love 'em! they're spinach and feta cheese wrapped in phyllo dough. i don't think they're fried though, like the ones i make i bake. the unhealthy thing from spanakopitas would be the butter in the phyllo! everything else is good for you though!

no it's like a breaded triange...not phyllo pastry. i knwo the ones youa re taking about are more like appitizers and yeah they are soo good!
