Day 2 at the Choices Conference
The biggest difference on day 2 was that an additional conference was using a room right across from our table. The conference had another extremely long name that I can't remember while I type, but had to do with treating substance abuse. The most interesting thing I noticed is that their afternoon break included canned sodas while the Choices conference had opted for lemonade and iced-tea. It seems so inconsequential, but I think it speaks volumes about being actively engaged in food choices or accepting what Corporate America is selling. Joan really liked the closing session by Paul McConaughy who is the Program Leader of the Michigan Nutrition Network at Michigan State University Extension. She plans on blogging about it sometime in the next week.
