Weighing in on Wellness
Living a healthful lifestyle is a full-time commitment, and keeping our families active has become more important than ever. Recognizing this, the Healthy Weight Commitment Foundation (HWCF) has united over 40 retailers, non-profit organizations and food and beverage manufacturers in a national, multi-year effort to help reduce obesity—especially childhood obesity—by 2015. Bumble Bee is excited to be a founding member of this important initiative! We’re committed and eager to help people gain a healthy weight through energy balance. This means inspiring positive change in the three areas of focus for the Foundation: the marketplace, the workplace and schools. Keep an eye out for programs and updates from Bumble Bee as part of our contribution to better living.
We can all use tips, tools and information to make healthy living and eating just that much easier. Bumble Bee already has some great resources to support you in accomplishing your health goals such as those offered through our signature BeeWell Miles program (BeeWellMiles.com). And don’t forget those tasty products! Check out your local grocery store for a variety of Bumble Bee products that are nutritious, affordable and easy to incorporate in recipes that will keep your family eating well all of the time.
A healthy lifestyle is also about keeping active and on the move. Family walks or playtime in the park or at the beach can make a difference. And after you’ve built up an appetite, make a family meal that’s nutritious and delicious! One suggestion: Try the fancy lump crabmeat, perfect for making a delicious crab quiche. Featured this month, crab is one of Bumble Bee’s many low-fat, low-calorie products. It’s rich in protein and affordable enough that you can enjoy crab anytime. Join us in our commitment to health and wellness, and let’s get healthy together!

Baby It's Cold Outside
Don’t let the cold weather get you down. Embrace Fall and Winter with recipes you’ll love to warm up to. You can’t go wrong with a Classic Tuna Noodle Casserole. Everyone has a twist on this old favorite. If you’re looking to try something different, we recommend the Tuna Swiss Casserole. Or try Bumble Bee’s New England Clam Chowder (one of our MyCookbook recipes) with freshly baked garlic bread. Yum.
Yes, the holiday season is usually about indulging, but you can absolutely indulge without guilt. A great Thanksgiving is as much about food as it is about family and friends. Get your whole family outside for a rousing game of football. You’ll be burning calories and spending quality time with your kids, relatives and friends, while something delicious is cooking up in the oven. After the game, enjoy some tasty appetizers (check out this recipe for a mouth-watering dip) and then dig into that Thanksgiving feast you’ve been waiting for all year long. For more ideas on how to stay fit this winter, check out Easy Moves with Coach Jenny. Stay active and feel good!
