Why are they so many songs about rainbows??? Because they are amazing and beautiful-not just in the sky, but also on your food plate! "Eating a rainbow" helps your body get what it needs to make you healthy and strong.
What does it mean to "eat a rainbow"?
It is very important to choose lots of different-colored foods throughout the day and week. The more colors on your plate at each meal or snack, the better. BUT.....this DOES NOT mean eating a rainbow of candy and soda that have fake food coloring like Gummy Snack and Popsicles.
You want to eat lots of colorful fruits and vegetables-which help your body stay healthy and fight sickness. Eating a colorful range of food helps you get all the vitamins you need to grow strong and stay healthy!
