- Abstract
The article focuses on a study of the effectiveness of an intervention that aims to increase vegetable consumption among children in an elementary school in Richfield, Minnesota in 2011. The scheme included the use of photographs of vegetables in school lunch tray compartments. The link between the intervention and an increase in the amount of green beans consumed per student is mentioned. One of the advantages of the intervention is its minimal cost.
