The B.E.N Center is also known for driving the Smarter Lunchroom Movement. The movement focuses on how simple, low-cost and no-cost changes to the lunchroom environment, such as relocating fruits, renaming vegetables and prompting students to enjoy healthy foods, can nudge students to make healthier food choices.
