For most of us, food is the centerpiece of our holiday celebrations. We relish the meals we share with friends and family at our favorite restaurants, and we savor the holiday recipes we make at home. But we also know that some in our community are not as lucky. The elderly, the working poor, and too many children are not always able to enjoy great food whenever they wish.
This year in particular, the news at the grocery store is grim. The U.S. Department of Agriculture estimates that eggs are up 40% in the past year; milk up 26% a gallon; a loaf of standard bread, 20%. Across the nation, increased financial pressures have led to a surge in demand on food pantries.
With so many people in precarious straits, non-profits like Meals on Wheels have never needed our support as much as they do now. That’s why this holiday season, Dishola and Whole Foods Market have partnered with Meals on Wheels and More to bring warm, nutritious dishes to the hands of those less fortunate.
For every review posted on Dishola.com between Dec 15th, 2008 and Jan 15th, 2009, we will ensure that a dish of food is delivered to a needy family. It is a small, yet meaningful way to share the love of food with those who need it most this holiday season.
Please support our dish-for-dish campaign by signing up as a new member here on Disholaand reviewing a dish. If you are already a member, please review a dish and encourage your foodie friends to join in.
Thank you and warm, tasty holiday wishes to all!
If you can help spread the word, that would be stellar and will help to meet our goal!
