Why choose CKC? It's the right choice because we are experienced school food service professionals and our progressive attitude
ensures that your school will be doing their program the right way.
CKC was established in 1990 and from the very beginning we have
focused on the requirements and nutritional guidelines of the National School Lunch Program. This gave CKC a terrific jump start and allowed
us to become an invaluable partner to many newly emerging charter schools.
Over the last seven years many improvements to the School Lunch
Program have been made by the Minnesota Department of Education, and as always, CKC has been the first to incorporate those improvements into
its' program. Creative innovations are a must...like creating menus for different age groups and incorporating ethnic recipes into our menus
to reflect the diversity in our community. We truly offer the widest variety of menus and flavors for area schools.
To see for yourself how CKC is changing the way school children eat, we urge you to click

well informed students. Our Foodsmarts shows you how we create menus designed to meet or exceed USDA nutrition guidelines with foods that kids truly
want to eat.
