More than nuggets

Children’s menu options continue to improve and expand.

As more parents introduce children to multiple healthy options earlier in life, results of those shifts are starting to appear on kid’s menus.

Wholesome options typically include grilled preparation, healthier ingredients and ethnic influences. Case in point: Zoe’s fast casual, which now offers children salmon kabobs, ham and cheese piadina (Italian flatbread) and orzo pasta bowls.

I doubt, though, that chicken nuggets will totally disappear anytime soon – children simply love to dip.
