Mars schools

Article Type: Food facts From: Nutrition & Food Science, Volume 40, Issue 4.

Today's school caterers face an ever-wider array of challenges, from increasing uptake of meals and snacks to ensuring that menus are balanced according to School Food Trust standards. Now a comprehensive new initiative from a major foodservice sauce supplier looks set to help. Uncle Ben's® and Dolmio® sauces contain no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives, are GMO free and contain no added monosodium glutamate. Salt levels in all of the sauces are in line with the latest School Food Trust standards and they are extremely high in vegetable content, especially lycopene-rich tomatoes. Working extensively with school chefs and qualified nutritionists, the company has developed literally hundreds of school-friendly, great tasting dishes that can be easily prepared from their sauces, as a real inspiration for school cooks.
