Middle schoolers are hard to reach because they go with what actions are trending as popular.  They may not eat veggies because fries are what others are grabbing.  They may not be physically active because messaging, texting, and video calling are all the rage.  Goodness knows this age group is too busy to bother themselves with thoughts of food safety.  All of this leads to poor food choices, obesity and chronic conditions, and possibly more days sick from not washing hands or produce as well as not putting foods back in the fridge in a good time.
