  • What is a share table?
    Share tables are an effort to reduce the amount of food waste in schools. Children place unconsumed food and beverage items that they have chosen not to eat or drink on the share table. This provides other children the opportunity to take additional helpings of food or beverages at no additional cost. 

    Schools can also reduce waste by: 
  • Implementing Offer versus Serve.
  • Offering multiple choices within each component. 
  • Allowing an appropriate amount of time to eat and scheduling meal periods so they are not too close together. 
  • Implementing recess before lunch, so children can work up an even larger appetite. 
  • Reviewing production records to help forecast amounts to prepare and identify unpopular items.
