”I hosted a “Healthy Mediterranean” cooking class in the store and used your “Shop and Taste the Med Diet” toolkit — The Mediterranean Diet Cooking Demos guide was especially helpful.
I prepared the Lemon Basil Whole Grain Salad. It was delicious! I printed out resources and included them in the kits I provided my six students. Thank you for providing helpful resources for in-store dietitians.” Kelly Pearson, RD/CDN, ShopRite, Montague, NJ
“I just did two cooking demos at the supermarket where I am a consultant RD. The participants loved this recipe and so did I! The aroma of the pecans was wonderful! I was surprised how many of my participants had never eaten catfish. Thanks, your recipes and materials are wonderful, I’ve used many of your handouts on my nutrition tours. The Healthy Holidays materials from last year have continued to be useful. I especially like the “There’s an App for That” handout which I will be using again for my “Don’t Get Sacked By Game Day Snacks” events. Keep up the great work!” Susan Mazrolle, MS, RD, consultant for Big Y Supermarkets, Massachusetts
Sondra Tackett, MS, RD, ShopRite, New Jersey, (pictured left), “The resources make great handouts for my cooking, weight management, and diabetes classes. During a visit I had at a local farmers market, I discussed portion control (using your handout) and prepared a better-for-you version of a summer pasta salad.”
“Our number one goal is encouraging customers and employees to enjoy a healthier lifestyle. We reach them through our in-store activities, at community events, and on television and radio, so it’s important that we provide evidence-based nutritional information that’s easy to understand. ONE helps me a lot with vetted and accessible materials that support our goals and activities.” Charlyn Fargo Ware, MS, RD, LDN, dietitian for Hy-Vee, Illinois.
“My customers appreciate the ONE PDFs that I hand out during demos and store tours, one-on-one consultations, and at community events. And I love them for the pertinent information which saves me valuable research and development time!” Judy Mayer, RD, Outpost Natural Foods, Wisconsin.
Dana Gaule, dietitian with Inserra Supermarkets/ShopRite, New Jersey, recently talked with people at a senior center about sweet potatoes, using materials from the North Carolina Sweet Potato toolkit hosted on ONE. “Having ONE as a resource saves me time and effort, and I know that I can trust the information coming from you! Thank you for the awesome resources and the valuable connection with NCSPC.”
“I was preparing for a client who has osteoporosis and diverticulitis. Her doctor wanted her on a high fiber diet and I wanted to address her calcium intake. I was checking my email and saw the new tool kit “Plant Based diet” and I down loaded it. The calcium and fiber handout were just what I needed for that client. Perfect timing!! Thank you!“ Maryrose Agel, RD, Shoprite, New Jersey
“I always loved Oldways resources but was even more excited when I found the ONE toolkits. I love the simple tip sheets, demo ideas, recipes and myth busting articles. The toolkits are a great guide for planning classes and store tours, especially for those last minute requests! They also help trigger my creativity when I feel stuck in a nutrition rut and are easy to tailor with your own style and brand.” Julie Hersey MS, RD, LDN, Nutritionist, Stop & Shop New England
