Have you ever found yourself staring at a vending machine wondering "What is the healthiest item to eat in this machine?"
Chips? Candy? Chocolate?
We won't deny that the creation of vending machines was a great idea. After all, who doesn't want a quick snack at work to satisfy their afternoon craving? Who wouldn't want to pick-up something quick to eat at school in-between classes? With today's demanding lifestyles, a vending machine can be the perfect remedy for the need of a quick and satisfying snack.

But these days, vending machines are often filled with products that are high in fat, oil, sodium, and sugar. Instead of unprocessed, fresh and healthy snacks rich in nutrients that your body needs to tackle the rest of the day.
With our Eat Healthy. Live Healthy® initiative decided to take on this vending challenge. We wanted to provide healthy fresh snack alternatives in vending machines so that people would have the opportunity to have fresh fruits and vegetables at their convenience. Alternatives such as, apples with caramel dip, and pineapple chunks with grapes We are excited that Del Monte Fresh Vending Line products can now be found in vending machines in schools, universities and office buildings across the country!
The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, especially from schools. Kids love having fresh fruit and vegetables in their vending machines and parents and educators are happy to see their children opting for healthier snacks. With today's increasing childhood obesity rates, educators and parents are excited that they now have one more tool to help them reverse this alarming trend.
You can also make a difference in the fight against obesity with healthier snacks in your vending machine. Simply ask your school administrator or office building manager to contact us at freshvending@freshdelmonte.com and we can help them get the full Del Monte Fresh Vending Line in your vending machine!

Fall is a fun time of year. The air is crisp, and the leaves turn such stunning colors. There is always something to celebrate, too-football games every weekend, and a new holiday each month.
It can be tempting to hide any extra pounds underneath a sweater or jacket and there are so many delicious foods to enjoy! It is completely okay to eat a fun-size candy bar (or two!)-as long as you balance it out with healthy fresh produce and you make sure you burn off the extra calories.
Cooler temperatures make fall the perfect time to enjoy being outside. Remember: exercise does not have to be organized or regimented.
Here's how you can sneak some fitness into your outdoor fun. |
