Facts About Eat Better, Eat Together Month

  • 05 16, 2023

October National Eat Better

The month of October is designated as 'National Eat Better, Eat Together Month’ where families are encouraged to have mealtimes together. There, families who share their main meals together are likely to eat more healthy meals. Besides, it is quite fun to while away time as well as exchange stories on the different activities each day presents. This is exactly what is suggested by National Eat Better, Eat Together Month, which runs from October 1 to 31!

Given the fast-paced environment that most modern-day families find themselves in, having every meal together seems far-fetched. Work towards having at least one meal as a family per day. This can also be achieved by cooking some of the meals in advance. Easy principles of make-ahead-meal menus help to streamline and categorize the meal preparation and grocery shopping activities.

Involve everyone in the process of cooking and setting the table. There is no age restriction whatsoever for each and every family member. Every single person has something to do; from the forks to the boiling water. And cleanup too, of course!

In the end, have a night devoid of any cooking. At times, going even raw or no-bake not only helps in cleaning up with ease but is also about health. Fresh cut fruits and vegetables, some peanut butter and fruit dips, cheese with whole grain crackers make satisfying meals where the nutrients are as good as those of a cooked one. This isn't something you'd wish to do on a daily basis but once in a while, it will make the evening easy for every one of them without any time rush.
