Popcorn, Pizza & Chocolate Month!
| October 2010 |
Hello!
Popcorn! Pizza! Chocolate! Do I have your attention?
October is National Popcorn Popping Month and National Pizza Month. October 28th is National Chocolate Day. Chocolate is in my motto: "There's always room for ice cream & chocolate." "These are a few of my favorite things" just like Julie Andrews sang in the Sound of Music. Popcorn, pizza and chocolate can be a part of a healthy balanced approach to eating. In this month's newsletter I've included tips for balance in eating these favorite treats. Enjoy in moderation.
Healthy Regards, Kathryn Fink, MS, RD, CSSD, LD Nutrition & Fitness Consultant

National Popcorn Popping Month Key points I like about popcorn
- the portion size is large
- 3 cups of popcorn gets you one serving of whole grains
- it is naturally low in calories and fat (1 cup of light popcorn is less than 20 kcal, .5 grams of fiber and only 1 gram of fat)
- try combining with dried fruit or nuts to make a unique trail mix
- kids enjoy the taste
- it does not spoil in the Texas heat
- no need for refrigeration
- you can make a large portion and use it for several snacks (tip: place in small bags after prepared and put in your lunch containers)

National Pizza Month Pizza can be a quick way to get nutrients!
Key points I like about pizza
- there are a lot of varieties
- it is quick and easy to make
- you can make mini pizzas by using Quaker popcorn cakes or English muffins and adding your own toppings
- purchasing a store brand when on sale can make it convenient and inexpensive (try adding your own bell peppers, purple onions & pineapple to boost nutritional value)
- you can custom make your own by buying pizza crusts and just adding the toppings
- try purchasing the thin crust to decrease the carbohydrate content and add your own toppings
- it makes a great breakfast, lunch, dinner or snack
- easy to put in lunch boxes
