Healthy catering for kids of all ages.
   Edible Toronto ran an article (titled Kiddli Winks) in their Fall 2007 issue, calling them: "a catering and nutritional education outfit that aims to replace the standard school fare of processed, packaged foods with locally sourced, all-natural snacks and lunches. Along with a devoted team of sixteen full-time staffers and several volunteers, they now nourish kids in seventy Toronto daycares." Lunches are served family-style, rather than as individually packaged meals typical in many schools. Lulu, one of the owners, develops recipes that accommodate a range of diets, from vegan to gluten-free.
