Hello,
Today in class, Janine Faber from Meijer came and spoke to us about the dietitian's role in a grocery store. There is such thing as the Meijer Healthy Living program to help create and communicate health solutions and product knowledge to customers. She takes part in community events, in-store events like cooking demos, TV and radio broadcasts, and publications like their Healthy Living Naturally Magazine. She ended her talk by telling us about NuVal.
This was the most intriguing speaker we've had so far because it's about a job that I didn't realize I could do as a dietitian. But now it makes sense that there would be a dietitian working with grocery stores. This seems like a fun job and such a critical one too because as a dietitian working at the grocery stores, we can sway shoppers toward more whole and healthy foods.
