Retail Dietitians Resources

Retail dietitians are the direct conduit to American consumers who are hungry for nutritional information and advice. Dietitians play an important role in helping consumers not only understand the foods they buy, but learn how to make the most — nutritionally — out of their buying choices. Understanding this, the NOA has created a series of turnkey toolkits for dietitians to include complete cooking class curricula, social media posts, FAQs and more, to help make this important job easier with trusted onion information, recipes, and social content at their fingertips.

Onion Toolkit for Dietitians

This toolkit will help dietitians and their customers understand the nutritional benefits and versatility of onions. Inside:

• How onions are grown.
• Q & A with two growers.
• Tips for selecting at point-of-purchase.
• How to use and store at home.

The resources can be used in all aspects of your work:

• Demonstrations.
• Social media.
• Television/radio segments.
• Classes and counseling.

It will all help encourage and guide healthier meal planning for consumers and drive wellness and business success for your location.
