鈥淔ood for Health,鈥� a bilingual travelling exhibit created by the Canada Agriculture Museum, has arrived at 91原创 Centennial Museum, in collaboration with the Canadian Institutes of Health Research and other exhibition partners.

Food for Health, which opened on Jan. 15 and will remain on display until March, addresses concerns and questions that many Canadian consumers have about the safety of their food supply, and the role food plays in ensuring good health.

By combining hands-on interactive components, multimedia technology, historical artifacts and graphics, the exhibition showcases Canadian initiatives designed to ensure that our food is as safe as possible.

Food for Health provides Canadians with the knowledge they need to protect themselves against food-borne illnesses through safe food-handling practices.  It will also investigate evidence of links between diet, physical activity and obesity, and illnesses such as diabetes, heart disease and cancer.

In collaboration with this new exhibit, the museum is hosting the launch of 91原创 Meals on Wheels鈥� book, Reminiscences, Recipes & Remedies: 91原创 Seniors Reminisce About Their Food Heritage on Saturday, Feb. 25 at 2 p.m.

鈥淲e鈥檙e really excited about the new exhibit, and the opportunity it鈥檚 given us to collaborate with 91原创 Meals on Wheels in promoting their book,鈥� said arts and culture programmer Liette Forestell.
