### ■ About the Food Education Practice Excellent Corporation Recognition System Amidst a growing trend towards externalizing food consumption and seeking convenience, and a decrease in vegetable and fruit intake among young people, concerns about disordered adult eating habits are becoming apparent. Therefore, there is a need to promote "adult food education" for the younger generation who will lead the future society. This "Food Education Practice Excellent Corporation Recognition" program aims to honor companies that provide healthy meals to their employees and engage in initiatives to improve their dietary habits, thereby boosting vitality within the company and facilitating the dissemination of excellent practices.

### ■ Evaluation Points for Our Initiatives "Cultivation Experience Even in Remote Work! Communication Blossoms with Mini Tomatoes" To increase employees' interest in food in a remote work environment, we sent mini-tomato seedlings and soil to employees' homes, implementing an initiative to foster interest in food through cultivation and harvesting. We utilized our company's chat tool, "dejiren," to share growth status, which invigorated communication. This cultivation experience not only heightened interest in food but also promoted communication not only among employees but also with their families.
