The Meals On Wheels Association of America is teaming up with the National Fisheries Institute to promote the health benefits associated with including fish in a healthy, balanced diet. I like the fact that they call fish, “brain food.” Boy am I smart with all the seafood I eat. You’ll have to research the rationale for that yourself since it’s got something to do with Omega-3 essential fatty acids and that’s not something I know anything about.

The “Go Fish!” program theme is modeled after the popular card game and will provide thousands of MOWAA members, volunteers, clients, donors and staff a different “playing card” each week that will include recipe and meal preparation ideas, health and nutrition information and facts about fish. The first card, the King of Hearts, is available upon request.

“We know that many health benefits are derived when seafood consumption is increased and are pleased with the opportunity to share this information with our members because of our partnership with NFI,” said Enid Borden, CEO of MOWAA. “It is our desire to promote better nutrition for seniors we serve and encourage them through our programs to put more fish in their diets.”
