How do you bring healthy eating to the school cafeteria? A researcher from Harvard’s School of Public Health talks about some fascinating new findings that may offer real answers - at a time when one in three American children is overweight or obese.

Our guests:
- Juliana Cohen, research fellow at Harvard School of Public Health
