✅ Why You Don’t Need to Mark All Fruits & Vegetables as Smart Picks
  1. Whole, Fresh Fruits and Vegetables Are Always Smart Choices
    • Plain, raw, steamed, roasted, or lightly cooked vegetables and fruits naturally fit Smart Pick criteria.
    • They are low in fat, sodium, and added sugar, making them inherently a healthy choice.
    • Example: Fresh apples, carrots, leafy greens, or steamed broccoli do not need a Smart Pick marking—they already align with healthy eating guidelines.
  2. USDA MyPlate & School Nutrition Standards Consider Fruits & Vegetables Essential
    • Schools encourage students to fill half their plate with fruits and vegetables.
    • Since these food groups are already prioritized, marking them separately isn’t necessary.

⚠️ When You Might Want to Mark Certain Fruits & Vegetables as Smart PicksSome prepared or processed fruits and vegetables may not meet Smart Pick criteria due to added sugar, salt, or unhealthy fats. Marking only the truly Smart Pick options may help students make healthier choices. Examples include:
  1. Fruits With Added Sugar
    • Canned fruit in syrup or sweetened fruit cups may not meet Smart Pick criteria.
    • Smart Pick alternative: Unsweetened fruit cups or fresh fruit.
  2. Vegetables With Added Fats or Sodium
    • French fries, hash browns, or fried vegetable dishes are not Smart Picks.
    • Creamed or buttered vegetables (like creamed corn or cheese-covered broccoli) may be high in fat and sodium.
    • Smart Pick alternative: Steamed, roasted, or raw vegetables without heavy sauces.
  3. Packaged or Processed Vegetable-Based Snacks
    • Some vegetable chips or fruit snacks marketed as "healthy" contain added sugar, sodium, or preservatives, making them less Smart Pick-friendly.

✅ Introducing Checkmark Boards – A Smarter Approach to School MenusOur Checkmark Boards allow food service teams to highlight healthier options and improve meal planning with a simple, clear system. These boards are available in:
🟢 Wall-Mounted Displays – Ideal for traditional placement, providing a consistent and clear visual for students.
🟢 Front-of-Line Stands – Designed for maximum visibility, allowing students to see meal options before reaching the serving area, reducing wait times and supporting better meal decisions.
With flexible placement options and an intuitive checkmark system, our boards enhance cafeteria operations, improve efficiency, and promote better food selection habits among students.

✅ How Our Boards Help You Meet USDA RequirementsThe USDA’s National School Lunch & Breakfast Programs (NSLP & SBP) require schools to:
🟢 Organize Meals by MyPlate Food Groups
✔ USDA Standard: Schools must offer protein, grains, vegetables, fruits, and milk in each reimbursable meal.
✔ Our Solution: Our boards clearly list each meal component by food group so students can see their options easily.
🟢 Support the Offer Versus Serve (OVS) Policy
✔ USDA Standard: Students must choose at least three food components, including one fruit or vegetable for a reimbursable meal.
✔ Our Solution: By placing the menu board at the front of the serving line, students can see exactly what they need to select to meet OVS requirements before reaching the tray.
🟢 Encourage Healthier Eating Through Nutrition Education
✔ USDA Standard: Schools should promote nutritious meal selections using signage and menu boards.
✔ Our Solution: Our Smart Picks feature allows food service teams to highlight the most nutritious choices with a simple checkmark or asterisk, making it easy for students to recognize the healthiest options.
🟢 Provide a Flexible & Adaptable Display for Daily Menus
✔ USDA Standard: Menus must be updated regularly to reflect daily offerings.
✔ Our Solution: Dry erase boards allow for quick menu updates, while LED flashing boards grab attention and reinforce nutritious selections.

✅ Beyond Compliance: How Checkmark Boards Improve OperationsOur Checkmark Boards are more than just menu displays—they help food service teams streamline operations, reduce waste, and make better planning decisions by:
🟢 Predicting Demand More Accurately – Helps food services anticipate popular items and adjust portion sizes accordingly.
🟢 Reducing Food Waste – By analyzing selection trends, food services can minimize overproduction and avoid unnecessary waste.
🟢 Optimizing Inventory Management – Ensures that high-demand ingredients are stocked properly, reducing shortages and excess stock.
🟢 Improving Cost Efficiency – Schools can focus resources on the most chosen items, cutting costs on less popular options.
🟢 Adjusting Menus Based on Data – Tracking checkmarked items over time helps food service directors refine menu offerings based on real student preferences.
🟢 Encouraging Healthier Choices – A clear checkmark system makes nutritious foods stand out, guiding students toward healthier meal selections.
🟢 Reducing Decision Time – Clear visual cues help students make quicker meal choices, leading to faster-moving lines and improved efficiency.
🟢 Increasing Sales of Nutritious Foods – Schools may see higher participation in meal programs by making healthier foods more appealing.
🟢 Supporting Marketing & Education Efforts – The Checkmark system reinforces nutrition education, making school cafeterias an extension of the classroom.
🟢 More Efficiency, Less Food Waste = Saving Money! – Smarter menu planning leads to lower costs, improved operations, and a more sustainable school meal program.

✅ Upgrade Your School Menu Boards Today!By investing in Checkmark Boards, you’re not just displaying meals—you’re helping students make healthier choices, improving cafeteria operations, and ensuring compliance with USDA guidelines.

​If your district has already installed digital menu boards in some schools but is hesitant to expand to more - or to all schools - due to the high costs involved, we’d like to suggest a solution worth considering.
And if you're just now considering installing menu boards for the first time - but find yourself hesitating due to shrinking resources and the long-term cost of traditional digital systems - there’s a way to move forward without the financial burden.
Menu boards play a critical role:
  • They help satisfy USDA visibility requirements
  • They increase student participation
  • They support wellness goals through daily nutrition education
But expanding digital menu board use can be expensive - both up front and over time.
