Imagine you are a dietitian working in your local community. Many of your patients have dietary restrictions. They are frustrated because they want to go out to local restaurants to eat with friends and family, but they don’t know where they can get food that will meet their dietary restrictions. You’re here to help! Here’s your mission:
Create a local restaurant guide. Your guide needs to include at least one local restaurant that offers options for each of the following dietary restrictions:
- diabetic
- gluten free
- vegetarian
- vegan
You can create your guide map style or brochure style; by hand or with design software such as Canva. Be sure to include helpful information about the food options (an image, description, price, etc.) and each restaurant you feature (location, website, etc.).
Share your local restaurant guide in our Student Showcase to build your resume as a dietitian! BONUS: You can also email your guide to your local Chamber of Commerce and see if they would be willing to help you share it within the community.
