Gastronomía será una asignatura en los colegios españoles

La gastronomía española se enseñará en los colegios a partir de septiembre, tras la aprobación hoy de una proposición no de Ley que la reconoce como bien de interés cultural inmaterial, ha anunciado el promotor de la iniciativa y presidente de la Real Academia de Gastronomía (RAG), Rafael Ansón.

Se incorporará al sistema educativo en forma de conocimientos de alimentación y educación del gusto mediante talleres para que, desde pequeños, los españoles aprendan a apreciar su gastronomía y a nutrirse de forma correcta.

Kids in the Kitchen

Kids will make good choices, taking fruits and vegetables over less nutritious foods, when given a chance. Encourage healthy eating by creating a supportive environment, where parents and other caregivers model healthy eating. Involving children in shopping, cooking  family meals and even gardening are other important steps in getting kids interested in fruits and vegetables.
