Menu Reviews
In addition to teaching Foodservice Systems to third year dietetics students at The University of the Sunshine Coast, Jodie works with schools and day care centres to promote nutritious foods and establish positive eating habits for all children. Jodie also works with local restaurants and cafes to provide guidance on specific menu items, allergen claims and healthy eating.
