PARENTS
“My son Marcus is entering 2nd grade…. I was appalled to see that [X SCHOOL] had a deal with Subway, a pizza place and a taco place 3 days a week for their lunch program last year - what a wrong message to promote fast food places. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for providing healthy lunch options.”- Parent, 8/15/08
“Thanks so much for stopping by today, Elizabeth. I think the kids really enjoyed the food and meeting someone from the company that made it for them! My daughter's 3rd grade class loved it. I asked her if anyone in her class didn't like their food. She thought about for a second, and then said, "Yes, a couple of kids didn't like what their moms packed them." Ha! :-)”- Parent, 3/22/08
“Best meal you have ever sent! All around...staff and students...they want the recipe! They said they would eat them once a week!” – Parent Coordinator, 4/25/2007 (About our Grande Burrito with Brown Rice, Beans and Cheese)
“Keefer loved the chicken fingers and ate all of today’s lunch.” – Parent, 1/24/2007
“Wow! Revolution Foods is truly going above and beyond the call of duty! Thank you so much for all you are doing for [X SCHOOL]. Everything you are doing and incorporating sounds so wonderful. I just wanted to say thank you to everyone at Revolution Foods. With all the suggestions and comments in my previous email, I was not sure if it came across how much my daughter and my husband and I are enjoying the food Revolution Foods is offering this year to [X SCHOOL’S] students. I am so truly grateful for the tasty and nutritious food my daughter is eating this year. You guys rock!” – Parent, 9/25/2006
“My daughter, Isabella, a first grader attends school there and she ABSOLUTELY hated eating lunch at school last year. I thought that lunch would be her favorite part of the school day…But, much to our surprise, after letting her sample various menu items last year she refused to eat lunch at school. Wow! Could this be our sweet little 'goat' (she will eat anything!)? The school menu contained food items that normally would delight most school age children- I have yet to understand why anything called an 'Uncrustable' is appealing. The menus were full of processed foods, fats, and sugar. Not exactly the fare most parents or teachers want students eating day in and day out. Now after only two days of school, my daughter wants to give eating school lunches a try once or twice a week. What a difference a year makes! Your menu looked so much better- healthier and tastier and still kid-friendly. The menu we received and your company's website fit better into the plans and goals [my daughter’s school] and its families have for a smart and healthy student body. Thank you so much for providing a healthy and tasty alternative to standard (or should I say 'sub-standard'?) school lunch fare.” – Parent, 8/10/2006
SCHOOL STAFF, TEACHERS AND BOARD
“Just wanted to quickly say what a hit the strawberries were at lunch today!!”- 5/22/08 Lunch Administrator
“I just wanted to let you know that the kids have LOVED the new menu changes. Today's tamales were a total hit along with the chicken noodle soup and the lasagna last week….. Many (of our kids) are excited to tell you about how much they are enjoying the food and how much they appreciate you listening to their comments! :) Again thank you so much for making our kids really enjoy lunch!”- 1/15/08 School staff member
“The food was a sensation! The kids and teachers loved it!
So thank you so much for coming in and providing those samples and talking to the kids about it! It was delicious.” – Lunch Coordinator, 6/8/2007
“Thank you so much for the delicious lunch yesterday - I loved the burrito and watching all the students enjoy them so much. (Everyone was eating - a miracle in itself for our middle school students)… One interesting thing that came out was how much they loved the milk - they talked about how delicious and fresh it was.” – School Nurse, 4/25/2007
“I wanted to tell you that I just joined the [X] school board, and at one point in their board meeting today, they took a total digression from the regularly-scheduled agenda info to sing your praises. They could not say enough great things about the quality of your service, the quality of the food, the nutrition education you were doing, and (most importantly from their point-of-view) the fact that you were “allowing them to expand your service” to additional schools. Truly, you couldn’t have scripted a better testimonial! Great job!” – School Board Member, 12/13/2006
“The apple for yesterday was so good. Thank you for this fruit.” – Lunch Coordinator, 12/1/2006
“I just wanted thank you for a great first week of our new meal program! I was just having lunch with some of our students and they are loving the food! I saw a lot of thumbs up and full mouths when I asked them how lunch tasted. One child told me "it's another good meal today!" They're even talking about the milk tasting better. Our students are also very curious about the new foods they are tasting, wondering about "why rice is brown not white" and "what exactly is cous-cous?" You've prompted our students to begin looking closely at what they are eating and try tasting new foods. We are very excited and thank you for all of your hard work! P.S. I'm loving the veggie options!” – Teacher, 9/7/2006
“The food was super-yummy, too! Everyone here is so thrilled to be working with Revolution Foods!” – Administrator, 10/25/2006
We only had an average of 45 lunches a day last year, so we have increased orders by 100%. – Administrator, 9/7/2006
