    Grits & Grind - Breakfast & Coffee Coming To Seacrest

    So to clear things up, The Spells (Spell Restaurant Group) wanted to offer breakfast somewhere and La Cocina was the perfect place! They didn't want people to think it was Mexican breakfast so they decided to create a new concept. Two of the cooks have been to the famous Brother Junipers in...

    I'm Fed Up. What if South Walton could be the model for the nation?

    Great. Thank you, Carson. I hope to get the schools to add some education and gardening as well. That's the goal. :)

    I'm Fed Up. What if South Walton could be the model for the nation?

    Ok. This is getting a little argumentative, which was not my intent. BUT, what you said is exactly right. It would be like a restaurant. Employees would be given prep tasks and jobs would be created. With all of the money saved from getting rid of the garbage food, it would work out. :) I'm not...

    I'm Fed Up. What if South Walton could be the model for the nation?

    Again, I appreciate your advice. I have already spoken to an area chef who buys only from local farms. This chef explains that it's expensive in the grocery store because of the high demand and miles it travels. If you buy local and have contracts with providers, then you save big. Basically...

    I'm Fed Up. What if South Walton could be the model for the nation?

    I am definitely not trying to force anything on anyone. I have to ask your age. The reason is that the garbage in the school system is recent. I was born in 1981 and grew up in a world where ladies in the cafeteria actually cooked the food for us. We had a meat and two veggies. One day a week we...

    I'm Fed Up. What if South Walton could be the model for the nation?

    I just want the American people to change the way they look at food. So, yes a cause. We are all in this together. This is about the kids that don't have a mom like you to pack their lunch. I think if we can change this here, we can inspire more counties to do the same. The key is to have a...

    I'm Fed Up. What if South Walton could be the model for the nation?

    I appreciate your advice, TeaPartyHard. I hope to have people help me out with this. I will probably first go to the superintendent. They won't be necessarily be eating salads, unless they choose that. Whole foods includes meats - hormone free, antibiotic free, grass-fed, cage free meats. There...

    I'm Fed Up. What if South Walton could be the model for the nation?

    As suspected, the menus all offer chicken nuggets, pizza, corn dogs, and some items like hamburgers and hot dogs. I would imagine all of these come prepared in a box and the school cafeteria employees just have to warm them. The ingredients in "foods" like this include every possible disguised...

    I'm Fed Up. What if South Walton could be the model for the nation?

    I must have written that wrong, but you obviously didn't really read what I wrote anyway. I said I don't have children. I said it twice. But really good job of changing the subject! Bravo!

    I'm Fed Up. What if South Walton could be the model for the nation?

    Last night I watched the new documentary Fed Up. It was very well done and really brings up everything we don't want to hear about what we are eating, especially about what our children are eating. Now, for us South Waltonites, we are very lucky because fast food isn't an option. We really don't...
