The Recipe for Success Foundation's Eat This Summer Camp prepares students to be savvy consumers.  The 120-hour program is tailored to 9 - 11 year-olds who have had some exposure to the kitchen and garden, and teachers teach them how food is developed and marketed to the American consumer.  The experience culminates with a student project to turn the bounty of their summer garden into a marketable prepared product.  In the process, participants research and create recipes, test them on other students, design packaging and sell their products.  This ultimate model of experiential learning prepares young consumer to be aware of the and resist the manipulative marketing tactics of retailers and junk food makers - a lesson for life.  In 2008, Eat This! Summer Campers developed Rainbow Ribbon Pasta, handmade pasta noodles 'dyed' with fresh veggies harvested form their garden.
Rainbow Ribbon Pasta was a sell-out.
