"StreetWise, StreetWise, GET YOUR StreetWise"
These words are synonymous with Chicago. You hear them everyday on the downtown streets of Chicago. StreetWise is a magazine dedicated to helping the homeless people in Chicago by employing them as salespeople, selling the magazine on the streets. But now they are targeting a new area of their business, selling healthy food in food carts. This news never made me so happy and hopeful to help change the way we eat.
There's a lot to learn and we've come a long way from the days of TV dinners, cheese wiz and happy meals and I have a feeling it will take a bit longer for the rest of the country to change the way they eat. Hopefully we can do that one EatWise food cart at a time.
