As a parent, I am super excited about today's #FoodFri Tweetchat! We're discussing healthier options for school food rewards and parties so that you, as a parent, can be prepared to offer fun, creative, healthy choices to kids of all ages!

More about our #FoodFri Featured Panelists:
Since 1971, CSPI has been a strong advocate for nutrition and health, food safety, alcohol policy, and sound science.
Founded by executive director Michael Jacobson, Ph.D. and two other scientists, CSPI carved out a niche as the organized voice of the American public on nutrition, food safety, health and other issues during a boom of consumer and environmental protection awareness in the early 1970s. CSPI has long sought to educate the public, advocate government policies that are consistent with scientific evidence on health and environmental issues, and counter industry’s powerful influence on public opinion and public policies.
