The following comments are from a 4th grade class school blog:

"I loved the show they put on for us, and since then I’ve been eating more healthy foods than junk food because I know it will lead me into a healthy life style to keep me active and have more energy."

Sincerely, Izabelle


"Me and my school really appreciated the show you put on for us not only because it was funny but also because you taught us a lesson in health and safety in what we eat. THANK YOU!"

Sincerely, Jaymeson


"My most favorite part was when Beans ate breakfast with sugar food and then gave her a sugar crash afterwards. Now from now on I’ll know that eating sugar food can give me a sugar crash."

Elizabeth


"I loved every part about The Real Food Show. It was really funny too. It was really amazing what they can do. I hope kids learned a lot about taking good care of them self."

Sincerely, Annabella


"My favorite part of the real food show was when Beans acted like she was in space. Because she did the neat Eco sound effect to make it sound like she really was in space. I learned that eating healthy give you more energy."

By Silas


"I think it was fantastic when the two people came to our school Friday and did tricks and showed us about healthy eating."

From, Devin


"I thought that the performance was really cool. And it taught us how to eat more nutritious foods."

Sincerely, Sarah M.


"I really liked the real food show on Monday because it was hilarious and the great thing about tit was that we were learning about real food at the same time. My favorite part about it was when Beans got on Frank’s shoulder. That was really funny too!"
