TI  - Youth Chef Academy: Pilot Results From a Plant-Based Culinary and Nutrition 
      Literacy Program for Sixth and Seventh Graders.

AB  - BACKGROUND: National data confirm that youth are not eating recommended amounts 
      of fruits and vegetables (F/V), legumes, and whole grains (WGs). Establishing 
      plant-based eating patterns early in life may positively impact long-term health 
      through tracking of adolescent eating patterns into adulthood and through 
      potential associations between adolescent dietary intake and adult disease risk. 
      The study aim was to examine the effectiveness of Youth Chef Academy (YCA), a 
      classroom-based experiential culinary and nutrition literacy intervention for 
      sixth and seventh graders (11- to 13-year-olds) designed to impact healthy 
      eating. METHODS: Study used a nonequivalent control group design with 8 schools 
      selected for similarity in: free/reduced-price lunch, race/ethnicity, and student 
      mobility rate (N = 248). Primary outcomes were times per day of F/V, vegetable, 
      and WG consumption. Students completed a survey to assess primary outcomes and 
      other measures at baseline and post-intervention. RESULTS: Significant increases 
      in times per day of F/V (p = .022) and vegetable only (p = .015) consumption in 
      the intervention group compared to the control group. Increases in WG consumption 
      showed trended toward significance (p = .071). Student engagement and nutrition 
      knowledge showed significant intervention effects. CONCLUSIONS: YCA positively 
      impacts behavioral and knowledge variables related to healthy eating and 
      increases students' engagement in their classrooms.
