The Real Food Lunch Club is at Jackman!
Real Food for Real Kids™ (RFRK) is excited to be continuing with the
Real Food Lunch Club at Jackman! The 2010-2011 Lunch Club is currently
on!
What is Real Food for Real Kids?
RFRK is the all-natural, fresh-from-scratch catering company for
childcare centres, schools, and camps in the GTA. Every day we cook and
deliver delicious meals and snacks to thousands of children, with the
goal of instilling life-long healthy eating habits in the kids we
nourish. We know that a healthy, hot lunch made fresh-from-scratch with
local, natural ingredients is exactly what our kids need to keep them
energized and ready to learn! For more information about menus,
pricing, and to learn more about who we are and what we do, visit
www.rfrk.com.
When does the Lunch Club start at Jackman?
The Real Food Lunch Club runs every Monday and Friday up to and
including Monday, June 27th, 2011 (excluding school holidays). To view
our Omnivore and Herbivore menus you can take a look at the flipbook of
RFRK information in the office at Jackman, or view our menus via online
registration: www.rfrk.com
How does the Lunch Club work?

Every Monday and Friday, parents send a reusable/resealable dish,
cutlery, and drink with their child to school. You can purchase
an excellent stainless, steel snap-lid lunchware directly through
RFRK.

The Lunch Club Coach will ensure that all the kids have enough to
eat and will encourage children to try new foods that they may not
have tasted before. Discovery is an important part of the Real Food
Lunch Club!

Children pack their reusable lunchware to take home, and head out to
recess. Simple!
Your child will bring home their reusable lunchware to be washed and
returned to school on the next Lunch Club day.

What is the Value Meal?
To help make nutritious food accessible to everyone, the TDSB requires
that caterers provide one ultra low cost, complete meal option for
$4.00. The true cost of locally sourced, sustainably produced, allnatural and organic food makes this price a real challenge. We put our
thinking caps on and devised a simple solution, which we call our

“Value Meal”. Every child in the Real Food Lunch Club enjoys the same
vegetable, fresh fruit and grain. Kids enrolled in the Omnivore and
Herbivore plans receive a variety of delicious protein dishes on a 20
day rotating cycle. Kids choosing the Value Meal are able to choose
between just two protein options – a meat chili and a vegetarian chili.
Unlike other caterers, RFRK would never sacrifice food quality to
reduce costs. We decided that reducing variety was the healthier way to
go!
My child has allergies – can they still participate?
Food allergies are no reason to miss out! The Real Food Kitchen is a
peanut and tree nut free facility, and our unparalleled allergensubstitution program helps us ensure that every child has access to
real food. If your child has anaphylactic allergies, please contact
Real Food for Real Kids directly to discuss your options.
This sounds great! What do I need to do?
 Discuss the Real Food Lunch Club with your child. Get them excited
about eating a lunch that’s delicious and healthy for them and their
environment!
 Decide which menu option (Omnivore or Herbivore) will best suit your
child.
 Register online at http://www.rfrk.com/catering/schools/list/
 Remember to send your child with their reusable lunchware, cutlery,
and a healthy drink on Lunch Club days (we recommend filtered water
sent in a stainless steel bottle).
What if my child will be absent on a Real Food Lunch Club day?
If your child will miss a Real Food lunch, you must provide RFRK 5 full
business days advance notice and you will receive a credit for the
missed lunch. Credits may either be applied to your account and
deducted from future payments, or you can choose to donate your credit
to ‘Real Food Forward’ (RFF). RFF uses your credits to provide free
lunches for children in need at your school and other Real Food Lunch
Clubs in the GTA.
What if I find the program is just not working for my child?
As a first step, please contact us at Real Food for Real Kids to
discuss the issue so that we can work with you to try to find a
solution. We strongly encourage participation in the program for a
minimum of 4 weeks, allowing your child time to taste every item on the
menu, develop a familiarity for new foods and allow positive peer
pressure to run its course. If you still find the program is not a good

fit for your child, please notify RFRK two full weeks in advance of the
withdrawal date and you will be refunded.
The Real Food Lunch Club is revolutionizing school lunch:
 The Real Food Lunch Club is litter-less! By sending food in bulk and
requiring the use of reusable plates and cutlery, the Real Food
Lunch Club feeds your children, not the landfill!
 We use as much organic content as possible and are Local Food Plus
market partners, so your kids will be supporting local farms every
Real Food Lunch Club day.
 We are 100% natural, and we cook everything fresh from scratch – no
factory farmed, industrially produced, packaged or processed food
here.
Wait! I have questions!
