Green to Go

FRESH IDEA: Greetings from the DC/Baltimore area! I’ve taken a little spring break time off, but did want to share a tasty tid bit spotted in Washington DC, amidst the crowds at the Smithsonian: DC’s On The Fly. Founded in 2007, these compact Smartkarts are GEM Electric Vehicles set-up to “eco-vend” healthy food selections to on-the-go patrons. So instead of hot dogs, soft pretzels, and various meats on sticks options, they offer natural, organic selections such as organic tacos and salads. And again, they’re transported with American-made, zero-emission, plug-in trucks. These smartkarts cetainly help feed the needs — and stomachs — of today’s health and wellness minded consumers. Have a good holiday. More nuggets to come next week! TASTY TREND: Feeling good about doing good.
