🍎 Child Nutrition ABCs: Letter V
Today’s alphabet adventure takes us to the letter V! From the tools that heat our meals to the incredible people who serve them, here is how V keeps our kitchens running at Md Fort:
🥗 Veggies- Thanks to our brand-new salad bars, we are so excited to offer our students more fresh vegetable options than ever before. It’s never been easier for our kids to “taste the rainbow” and fuel their bodies with the nutrients they need to succeed!
🔥 Vulcan- The backbone of the kitchen! Many of our schools are equipped with Vulcan ovens. These heavy-duty powerhouses ensure that every meal is cooked to perfection and served hot.
💨 Vent- A not-so-silent star of the kitchen! While they might be noisy sometimes, we are incredibly grateful for our hood vents. They are essential for kitchen safety, keeping the air clear and the environment comfortable for our hardworking staff.
🧤 Vinyl Gloves- Safety and sanitation are our top priorities. Depending on your hand size and preference, vinyl gloves might just be the perfect fit for you! They help us keep every meal prep station hygienic and safe.
👩🍳 Veronica- Last, but certainly not least, we’re highlighting our only teammate with a V name—Veronica! As the newest addition to the Md Fort team, Veronica has already proven herself to be an incredibly hard worker. We are so lucky to have her on board!
