"addressing food waste in a new and innovative way"

From the Milford Daily News, articles of interest for Franklin:
"Call it a shopper’s dilemma.

A supermarket bin is down to its last banana or head of lettuce, and the food looks a little tired. There’s a slight bruise, or the color isn’t quite right, and you can’t decide if it’s worth the risk to shell out money for something that could turn out to be a dud.

Harsha Prakki, 19, of Franklin, might be on her way to developing a product that could solve such a problem, and could even put $1 million in her bank account if she wins an upcoming international competition.

Prakki’s invention, which is still in the design stage, is a “sticker” placed on fruits and vegetables to indicate their freshness level. She said many consumers throw away food by the manufacturer’s listed sell-by dates, believing it’s no longer fresh. However, many foods can still be eaten safely, and her sticker is designed to guarantee how long food remains fresh enough to eat."

if the sticker is in any shade of blue, then the item is still within its freshness period, and good to eat

What is Juice Plus?

From Dashe Videra

What is Juice Plus?

Different than a multivitamin, Juice Plus+ provides concentrated farm fresh nutrition from 30+ different fruits, vegetables, berries, and grains daily. It helps bridge the gap between what you should eat and what you do eat. Juice Plus+ gives even a healthy diet more added nutrients from fruits and vegetables that you may not be getting every day. Everything labeled on the bottle is exactly what you get. 
They are NSF certified (National Sanitation Foundation which is higher than organic - tests for mold, yeast, pesticides, herbicides, and ALL heavy metals), non-GMO, gluten free, dairy free, nut free, peanut free, egg frees, and soy free (except our 100% non-GMO plant based protein powder). 
With every one adult purchase, you can sponsor a child for free and up until 4 years of age (ages 4 through college), has the highest level of Gold Standard Research (30+ peer reviewed studies), and safe for breast feeding mothers, pregnancy, and children. There is no one who cannot take Juice Plus.
