Tatum: a girl with a dream
We met Tatum on our way through Colorado. She sent us an email telling us that the #1 thing on her list was to be the first ever Kid Food Critic. Why? She wrote: “I have been getting tired of only having macaroni & cheese, chicken fingers, and grilled cheese sandwiches as options on the kid’s menu. I think it would be great if there was a way for kids to find out about unique and healthy foods that restaurants are providing for kids.”

Tatum & her friends demanded that Dave breakdance, they even got a drum out
We were so impressed that we reached out to Gabby Gourmet, a 30 year industry veteran, and managed to set the two up together to write a review together and air it on statewide radio! Big thanks to Gabby for being so kind and to Tatum for being so thoughtful. Let the kids-table revolution begin!

This is such a great idea! I really hope that Tatum pursues this. There are so many directions this could go. Getting kids to try new things and getting them to eat healthier would be a huge benefit. You go girl!
