Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics President Addresses Kraft Singles Controversy

Another day, another update on the Kraft Singles collaboration.

Earlier today, Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics members received the following email message from current president Sonja L. Connor:

“Dear Academy members,

I want you to know that the Academy and the Foundation Boards and staff are continuing to hear and understand your concerns regarding the Kids Eat Right initiative. Our dialogue about this complicated issue is ongoing. The Boards are meeting again this week. In addition, we are addressing the sponsorship issue with discussion at the House of Delegates at its upcoming meeting in May. The Academy Board will consider their recommendations at the May Board meeting.”

Keep in mind the May House of Delegates meeting does not take place until May 2.
