During my food service rotation, I was able to create an event for National Nutrition Month. The theme for this year is “Celebrate a World of Flavors” so I chose to make a smoothie with Lucuma, a fruit from Peru, which is where I was born.

​I provided nutrition education to the employees, and they got to learn about Lucuma’s health benefits and the importance of adding antioxidants to our diet. At first, I was a bit nervous because not everyone likes to try new things, especially something they’ve never heard of. However, I was pleased to see everyone’s reaction after they tried the Lucuma smoothie, especially because they may have never tried it or even heard of it if it wasn’t because of my event. Not only did they love the flavor, but also, they were very excited to read the board I created with all the benefits this fruit has. I received many positive comments and was happy to see that most people took a flyer with important nutrition information. I really felt like my project made an impact on the employees, and that was very rewarding for me.
