School Age Children
There is no age group better than school age children to teach the value of good nutrition, to help them form healthier eating habits that may last a lifetime. High quality soy foods with their high quality protein can serve as a good source of a complete protein for these critical years of child growth and development. Since children do not compromise on taste the key to making them eat soy food regularly is making them as tasty and as familiar as everyday foods and snacks so kids are willing to replace the junk foods with empty calories with great tasting everyday soy foods. Recognizing the value of soy protein in promoting children's health, the USDA in March 2000 made a ruling that "soy protein" can replace meat or other animal sources of protein in 100% of school lunch programs.
