Favorite Potato Recipe
Our team created and implemented a Pop Up Salad Bar promotion
at Buchholz High School The focus was a joint promotion to feature
Farm to School Program and My Fresh from Florida Plate Day As for
the bar itself it had several bases one of which being a baked potato
It originally was only the potato and a salad but the potato sold out
the ograverst day after the ograverst hour so they had to introduce other bases
to keep up with demand
Caron says that presentation is key to getting students to try the bar
Students like to see items being constantly replenished because it
shows freshness and popularity An increase in participation was seen
each day during lunch service They also noted an increase with paid
students and faculty over the three-day period Word of mouth
helped to bring new customers each day
We had a parent call afterward astounded they were able to get their
child to eat not only a baked potato but salad for the ograverst time These
items have never been ontildeered at the home and the parents was so
grateful

own bar and you can too To try out this salad bar schematic for
