Description: The Choice Pantry, located at Food for People in Eureka, provides income-eligible community members with access to healthy and nutritious foods. Our system emphasizes both choice and a balanced diet. People "shop" through their food selection process much like they would in a grocery store, rather than receiving pre-packaged bags. While the specific selection of food will vary from month to month, items from each nutritional food group (dairy, protein, grains, fruits, vegetables) are always represented. The choice system helps families to go home with the foods that they need and like while leaving behind items that they will not use, so none goes to waste. Volunteers and staff members are available to help shoppers with any questions about food groups, ingredients or Nutrition Facts labels. We even include recipe cards and taste tests throughout the pantry, to help shoppers with cooking ideas for healthy meals and snacks.
