The Bradie Shrum Elementary School cafeteria is holding a special “Try It Tuesday” lunch for students. Approximately once a month, students are greeted at lunch with optional samples of new menu items in addition to the regular lunch menu for the day. The sampled lunch item will then be served on the following Thursday. The initial launch of “Try It Tuesday” occurred just last week on August 20th. The students were given samples of Mexican Street Corn to try alongside their meal. Karen Libka, Director of Nutrition Services, said the feedback was great.
“We had a lot of students that really loved it,” said Libka. “However, some students said it was too spicy. So, we altered the recipe for Thursday based on that feedback. It turned out great, and the kids really enjoyed it.”
While the date and menu item are still to be determined, staff and students alike are looking forward to September’s “Try It Tuesday.”
