An ongoing focus of the festival is healthy dining. “[We are] trying to incorporate fresh and healthy foods that are indigenous to the regions represented around the marketplace. …And we do it in subtle ways. Guests can say, ‘Wow, you can eat healthy and enjoy going to a festival without feeling really guilty,’” says Hunnel.

In fact, a new event focusing on families and healthy dining will take place on October 29th, featuring Andrew Zimmern and two other celebrity chefs, Bryan Voltaggio and Chris Cosentino. The event will “show the Chefs as Dads. They’re going to have their kids with them, who will be showing techniques that the family can do together,” says Hunnel. The evening will also feature non-alcoholic mixed drinks to pair with the meal!

Neat idea, but Zimmern is an odd choice. He's not in great shape and Bizzare Foods isn't really a program which focuses on healthy eating. It does address other cultures using local produce, etc. though. Cat Cora might have been an interesting choice seeing how she's already tied to the parks.
