FOOD CHALLENGE

The District Food Challenge was held on Dec. 5, at the Bell County Expo. Three Milam 4-H members competed. The food challenge is a contest in which 4-H members have 40 minutes to make a dish with a key ingredient which they incorporate in their dish which they present to the judges, along with a five-minute speech on nutritional information, food safety, preparation and other healthy food habits. The Food Challenge team consisted of Hannah Bakken, Kira Cooper and Mirele Cooper. Their team was called “Don’t Go Bakin’ My Heart.” The 4-H members learned a lot about food and nutrition and life skills they can use for a lifetime. The Food Challenge team placed third in their category
