Food and Culinary Community Group

The enjoyment of great tasting food is an integral part of healthy eating. While dietitians have credibility and visibility as  nutrition experts, the perception that they lack food and cooking knowledge persists. The goal of the Food and Culinary Community Group is for dietitians to share food experiences, learn what makes food taste for their own use and provide tips and tools for dietitians to use with their clients about great tasting healthy food.

Cost: Free for DC Members

NOTE: Joining a community group requires an active Dietitians of Canada membership. Not a member? Learn how to become a DC Member here.
