Congrats to the Fair Food Network for spearheading a pilot in Detroit, successfully executing, and then expanding the program to the entire state. fantastico. Wow!!!! This has to be the smartest idea I have ever heard to promote healthy choices in food to low income homes. This could make a huge difference for a lot of families since produce can be one of the most expensive parts of a grocery budget. YES! This is awesome. I am really glad that they are doing this, and I want this to come to all the states! Wonderful initiative to eliminate food deserts. it’s good if people can get to the markets, but if not then… that must suck.  I would cry true tears of joy if this spread to NC. That really is brilliant.

    "Researchers found that Latinos and African Americans are more likely to give bottled water to their children, and spend up to twice as much of their household income on bottled water as do whites. After surveying some 640 people they found that Latinos and African Americans are more likely to consume bottled water largely because they view tap water as a health risk."

    motherjones:

    Curious if the bottled-water companies have cashed in on this trend yet? Wonder no more.
