How can we promote fitness and healthy living for night shift and jobs that can't leave their posts if the boxed meal and to go options are so unhealthy?

Sodexo offers over 29 healthy choices during the evening. Food options include salads, fish tacos, Mediterranean steak, or a roast turkey avocado sandwich at the Coyote Pub and Grill. Contrails also offers healthy options from their Simply-to-Go menu. Options include an antipasto salad plate, a variety of salads and salad wraps, sandwiches on white and wheat bread, meat and cheese cups, yogurt with fruit and a fresh fruit cup. The 9th Force Support Squadron is working with Sodexo to create a healthy box meal that has more nutritional value than our current offerings.
